Thanks to the generosity and enthusiasm of donors, NECO successfully completed its inaugural $50,000 Challenge Match campaign.
Gifts from many in the NECO community helped us meet and exceed our goal, doubling the impact of every dollar raised. Together, we raised $102,242, providing vital scholarship support to our students, expanding access to vision care, and ensuring that the next generation of optometrists is prepared to lead with both clinical excellence and compassion.
This achievement is more than a fundraising milestone—it’s a reflection of the strength, pride, and shared purpose that defines the NECO community.
On behalf of our students, faculty, and staff, thank you for being a part of this important initiative. Your belief in our mission continues to move us forward.
