About NONIA
Founded in 1920, the Newfoundland Outport Nursing and Industrial Association (NONIA) was incorporated as a non-profit business (social enterprise) in 1924. It was established to assist Newfoundland outport communities to access health services, by raising money from the sale of handknit garments to pay the salaries of public health nurses. In 1934 the health care portion of NONIA’s operation was taken over by the government, but the industrial side was maintained and continues today in much the same tradition as when it was founded.
NONIA's well-known handknits are created by approximately 140 knitters across the province.
Our products are handmade by Newfoundland and Labrador women, in busy homes and lively kitchens around the province. Some of these women have been knitting for NONIA for over 60 years! We continue to recruit new knitters who supplement their family income through this traditional method.
