OUR STAFF
At the heart of The Rock at NoonDay, our volunteers are the unshakable foundation driving our mission. Many on our Board and dedicated staff view their roles as callings, not just jobs. Together with people like you, these volunteers form the core of our ministry, ensuring that there's always a sanctuary of peace, even in difficult times.
OUR HISTORY
For over 30 years, Noon Day, now called The Rock at Noonday, has been a beacon of hope in Albuquerque. Founded by the Horn family, it's grown into New Mexico's leading provider of 145,000 meals annually. Today, it's more than a meal provider; it's a day-shelter supporting the vulnerable.
Their enduring promise is to help those in need get back on their feet. Your support can be the cornerstone for positive change, providing sustenance, shelter, and hope. Join those supporting this noble mission and be the foundation for many. Together, we can make a difference.
