NECO forms meaningful partnerships to advocate for positive change in the present. We've teamed with Boys Hope Girls Hope, The National Italian American Sports Hall of Fame, The Chinese Cultural Center, GOAL, and others to ensure that we are making a positive impact on the lives of people in need today.
Below you'll see some of our recent initiatives.
