A Message from the President,
As one of the earliest members who enjoyed serving the community with passion for the social and cultural activities, helping others whenever they need help, and today, as President of THE NILE ASSOCIATION OF ONTARIO (NAO), I share tremendous respect for this organization and join with my colleagues, board members, in recognizing it as a foremost Arab Community within Ontario and Canada. The Nile Association of Ontario has enjoyed a distinguished and rewarding partnership with the Arabic communities, Board of Education, and Cultural Organizations over the course of its accomplished history – both with the core organization and through the NAO Foundation. The idea of the NAO was first raised in 1987 by 7-12 families who were the founders of NAO, and then a board of directors was created from the following people in 1988, Bahaa Khaled, Mohamed El Badawi, Mahmoud El Farnawani, Ibrahim Balbaa, Mamdouh Shoukri, Medhat El Gohary, and Lotfi Salem. NAO membership population has increased to more than 1400 families in Ontario. Our membership community has grown, evolved and diversified since our founding more than 30 years ago, so has the necessity for timely, relevant social and cultural activities serving the community. For much of its history, the NAO has demonstrated remarkable continuity and consistency of focus on helping our community. In 2018, my colleagues, Board members Safaa Nasser, Mostafa Naguib, Amr Banis, Essam Khatab, and I had the distinction of expanding the number of families from 800 families to 1400 families today. The contribution focused on adding more distinguish prominent Social committee members Fifi Elhalwagy, Safaa Nasser, Moustafa Naguib, Mona Banis and Hani Atta a social and cultural characteristics approach to identifying any cultural, educational, social events and community services throughout the year with monthly services and events. In addition to our team we were very pleased to have with us side by side in our missions the highest valued contribution of our Media team (MEDIAinTORONT) Said Henry and Janet Mtanos which made our events and our services ideas received by all our members with appreciation and satisfaction. This approach lends tremendous value to our organization and added as much as twice number of families to reach the 1400 families today. Looking forward, we are targeting young members to become actively involved to lead our organization with new creative ideas to stay current in the years to come. As a community of educators, practitioners, and business professionals we need to continue to build our organization for our children and our grandchildren with more new ideas and approaches to sustain the advancement of our organization in Ontario and Canada. On behalf of NAO membership community, I extend deep gratitude and warm wishes on this milestone occasion to our Board members and our social committee. We look forward to fortifying our relationship and to building the future success of The Nile Association of Ontario hand in hand with dedicated young members. Dr. Mohamed Elhalwagy President, The Nile Association of Ontario
