The organization's purpose is to inspire and empower women to succeed as confident, well-rounded and socially aware contributors in their communities.

Rally Foundation raises awareness and funds for childhood cancer research. Save the Horses Charity is an all-volunteer, nonprofit organization committed to the rescue and rehabilitation of equines suffering from abuse, the successful retirement of working equines, and equine public education.

The purpose of the NCL experience is to inspire and empower women to succeed as confident, well-rounded and socially aware contributors in their communities.

The Ticktocker Class of 2016 held their annual Style Show on Oct. 26 at Save the Horses’ fifty- acre farm in Cumming. This year’s theme was a “Style and Shoot”. The tenth grade Ticktockers were the models while the ninth grade Ticktockers were assistants, hair and makeup artists, and helped set up the photo shoot. The dress theme was Milton Country Chic. According to Centennial High School Tenth Grader, Losia Tomlinson, “It was a beautiful day and Save the Horses farm was the perfect setting for a photo shoot. It was a lot of fun to be a model for a day. I was also glad to see that these abused horses now have a beautiful home. I look forward to coming back and helping out.”
The NCL Milton Chapter draws its membership from Milton schools and the surrounding areas. The chapter also serves the following philanthropies; Act Together Ministries, Alpharetta Library, The Drake House, Foster Care Support Foundation, HomeStretch, Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, and STAR House.
