Rizza Ditchella

As we reflect on the past year and look forward to the future, I am filled with pride and gratitude for the dedication and hard work each of you has shown. Together, we have navigated challenges and celebrated triumphs, always keeping the well-being of our community at the forefront of our efforts. 

Our organization has steadfastly pursued its mission by fostering education, providing high standard healthcare services and in promoting unity among our members. We have made significant strides, but we know there is always more to be done. As we move forward, let us remember that we can achieve more, together.

In achieving these goals, we anchor our efforts with our mantra: PNAAZ CARES:

  • Collaboration: Working hand in hand, we amplify our impact and create a stronger, more united front.
  • Adaptability: In an ever-changing world, our ability to adjust and evolve is key to our success.
  • Resilience amidst adversities: Challenges will come, but our resilience ensures we will overcome them.
  • Excellence: We strive for the highest standards in everything we do.
  • Sustainability: Our efforts are geared towards long-lasting, positive changes.

As Mahatma Gandhi wisely said, “The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.” This quote embodies the spirit of our association and the selflessness that defines our profession. Together, let us continue to serve with compassion, dedication, and a commitment to excellence.

Thank you for your unwavering support and for being an integral part of PNAAZ. Here’s to another year of growth, achievement, and making a difference—together.
