Neo-Scholasticism is simply an attempt to revitalize the scholastic philosophy of the middle ages. The short answer would be to say that neo-scholasticism contributes to current philosophy as a sort of reawakening to the philosophical tenets of scholasticism. The major areas to which scholastic philosophy touches on most strongly would be philosophy of religion/philosophical theology, ethics (Virtue Ethics and Meta-Ehics), metaphysics, and political philosophy. You may also find that it touches on areas like Epistemology, philosophical anthropology, as well as others. It has also helped in the preservation of Aristotelian thought and works as the major thinkers in the school (ie, St. Thomas Aquinas) used Aristotle reconciled with Catholic theology as its foundation. Whether or not one considers the tenets of a particular philosophical school as contributory would depend on the extent to which you agree with the underlying suppositions. For this reason it might be more helpful, for the sake of conversation, to ask how it influences philosophy as opposed to what it contributes.
