Inquiring Photographer - Norwood News

With the start of a New Year, we asked readers what their New Year’s resolutions are and their hopes for 2015.

My hope for 2015? For myself, and by extension, every human being, to make our walk with Jesus Christ stronger every day of the year. And to cradle and hold the children

–Irving Baker, Norwood

I’m hoping to stay out of trouble with people this year and to try and be more productive.
–Robert Carroll, Norwood

In 2015 I hope to find a job that lets me spend quality time with my baby girl. I hope my family and I continue to enjoy good health. I would love to start college as well and if everything goes as planned, I will wed the man I love.
–Camille Rivera, Norwood

For my New Year’s resolution it’s going to be a financial one—just trying to get out of debt, save money, and hopefully buy a house. I hope that gas prices continue to go down and people continue to get out of debt. Our economy is like the biggest thing haunting people nowadays.

–Charmain Farrar, Parkchester

This year I quit smoking. I hope the new year brings a better life for everyone.
–Mohammed Taher, Parkchester

Welcome to the Norwood News, a bi-weekly community newspaper that primarily serves the northwest Bronx communities of Norwood, Bedford Park, Fordham and University Heights. Through our Breaking Bronx blog, we focus on news and information for those neighborhoods, but aim to cover as much Bronx-related news as possible. Founded in 1988 by Mosholu Preservation Corporation, a not-for-profit affiliate of Montefiore Medical Center, the Norwood News began as a monthly and grew to a bi-weekly in 1994. In September 2003 the paper expanded to cover University Heights and now covers all the neighborhoods of Community District 7. The Norwood News exists to foster communication among citizens and organizations and to be a tool for neighborhood development efforts. The Norwood News runs the Bronx Youth Journalism Heard, a journalism training program for Bronx high school students.
