The Spanish language television network supports many community programs for young Latinos as well as broadcasting the award winning Plaza Sesamo. Disney sponsored several local events for the day as well as NLCI s annual conference. Ni os couldn t have met weekly to plan the national celebration. Since resources were tight and the celebration grew enormously in just a few weeks, it was impossible for NLCI staff to provide on-site assistance to each city. In addition, Ford Motor Company provided funding for the car safety section of NLCI's website.
Corporate involvement takes some work, but it makes a huge difference in the success of programs.
