NCL, Inc. National Headquarters is located in Costa Mesa, CA.  Currently NCL has 156 Chapters that thrive in 16 states.  The National organization and each of its Chapters is its own 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation run by a Board of Directors.  New Chapters are formed often and the vision to be the premier mother-daughter organization in every state is being realized.  NCL is not exploring international expansion at this time.

 

Why is NCL Special?  The NCL Experience inspires and empowers women to succeed as confident, well-rounded and socially aware contributors in their communities.  National Charity League is unique because of its multi-generational approach and three-pronged mission - learning to give of oneself and improve the community through philanthropy;  learning to lead through hands on experience in peer groups; and development of cultural competence - for both mothers and daughters.
