Our goal is to make a positive difference in the life of a Child!

The Northern Wake Optimist Club was chartered August 30, 2011.  As a civic club under the Optimist International umbrella, we have remained active.  Each club with Optimist International is autonomous in that they each get to choose their main focus.  For the Northern Wake Optimist Club, our main focus is Childhood Cancer/Childhood Illness.  We also support Optimist International programs such as Essay Contest, Oratorical Contest and Respect for Law (Hero’s Dinner).  We partner with local groups for programs such as Angel Tree, Shop with a Cop and Feed the Hungry.   We believe no child should be left behind!
