COLORADO SPRINGS â Neighbors helping neighbors is so important in a year like 2020 as we all work to rebound during the pandemic. One local organization wants to introduce you to other nonprofits that are making a difference.
During the month of December, Council of Neighbors and Organizations, otherwise known as CONO, launched the 'CONO Cares Campaign.' During the campaign, the organization will be highlighting nonprofits in our area through a series of virtual events.
"I just thought it would be a great way to boost morale during this time when so many people are somewhat struggling in different ways," said Stephanie Surch, director of the organization. "We recognized people need to have forums to talk about how they've been affected and how their neighborhood has been affected by the pandemic."
