Archived AGM Material

NCF's AGMs prior to year 2000 were conducted using a hybrid of a text-oriented menu system and a web page. At the time, there was a converter that made text pages available via web browsers, but that is no longer operating. Below is page that presents the AGM results and selected portions of the AGM material of the indicated year. For more information, please contact NCF.
