Noah famously became a pop singer after his retirement, but less well known is his ongoing passion and commitment to charity work.

In 1996, Noah began Fête le Mur, a foundation that introduces underprivileged children to tennis and helps them find jobs in sports. He has also provided great support for Enfants de la Terre, a charity started by his mother in 1988, as well as AIDS and environmental charities.
