The
NDA's Corporate Roundtable (CRT) is an entity that acts as an
advisory
committee to strengthen the organization's growth and
development. This is achieved through corporate giving,
fundraising, administrative contributions, and active
participation in programs at the national and local levels. The
NDA and the NDA Foundation (our 501(c)(3) entity) work together
to form corporate partnerships that enable us to fulfill our
mission and achieve our goals and objectives. Click
