a chance to keep children safe
The Connex Foundation is partnering with Home of the Innocents to provide a helping hand to children in the community during its IMPACT event at Mid-Year Conference 2026. These kids desperately need shelter, safety, and care. IMPACT, as well as Connex Foundation’s “Day of Giving”, provides you with the chance to bring it to them through donations and your unique skills.
We have several opportunities to take part in giving back, so make sure you register directly with the Connex Foundation’s registration page, as it is a separate registration from the Mid-Year Conference.
Making an IMPACT.
You can be a part of tangible, visible, and much needed form of giving back by joining the IMPACT event on September 22nd from 7:15 AM to 11:00 AM. Here’s how you can help:
Donate clothing and essentials for kids who are getting on their feet at home and at the shelter.
Take part in assembling welcome baskets and getting sheltered children access to support essentials and equipment.
Plus, other sponsorship and donation opportunities!
