“I think those early relationships...stick because now I have a lot of parents, I come in and we can just have a conversation,“ says Lane Taylor, a foster parent liaison. At Necco, we understand that by creating strong bonds with foster parents we are helping to create stronger families for foster children.

The greatest gift we can give this holiday season is a loving home. At NECCO, we’re dedicated to creating moments of magic and connection for children in foster care. At this time of year, we encourage you to join us in sharing the true meaning of the season—hope, kindness, and the gift of togetherness. This holiday, be a part of something extraordinary – help us bring joy and holiday spirit to those who need it most. With your support, we can transform lives and ensure that every child has a reason to believe in the magic of Christmas.

Meritocracy is the foundation of our organization, says Lane Taylor, a foster parent liaison with NECCO. This principle encourages sustainable ideas through critical thinking and innovation at all levels. It's one of our six pillars that support the work we do, day in and day out. Your voice matters at NECCO.

Christmas holds great significance at Necco, particularly for the children we support. For many kids and teens, this Christmas may be their very first experience of the holiday with a family. Thanks to generous donations from community members and organizations, the Florence, KY team wrapped nearly 5,000 gifts for foster families in the area. These gifts offer so much - They may be a child’s first Christmas present, not only bringing joy and excitement but showing them empathy and kindness - letting them know there are people in the world who love and support them. To our donors and foster families: Thank You! You are creating holiday magic and profound change in the lives of the children in our care.
