How it Works

Guests can then use those votes to direct where funds go in support of nonprofits in their community and across the nation. Once each voting period wraps up, Target awards grants to the nonprofits based on the percentage of votes they receive.

Focusing on Educating, Enriching, and Empowering Hartford’s Youth
Our Mission
ConnectiKids connects students facing systemic inequities and other barriers with people, places and experiences that level the playing field and inspire academic achievement, positive life choices, and big dreams.
We fulfill this youth-empowering, equity-advancing mission in partnership with schools, families, and the community. We provide one-on-one academic tutoring, individualized mentoring, arts and enrichment programs, and community-based learning experiences during the academic year and summer. These connections and opportunities motivate historically underserved kids to embrace high expectations, overcome adversity, and reach their full potential.

Become a Volunteer!
Caring people are always needed, and there are many ways to volunteer!
Mentorships
Mentoring, at its core, guarantees young people that there is someone who cares about them, assures them they are not alone in dealing with day-to-day challenges, and makes them feel like they matter.
Internships
Looking to gain experience working with children? Want to see the different roles within a non profit organization? We offer internships where you can shadow the staff and interact with the students during programming.
Partnerships
ConnectiKids has been fortunate to partner with other organizations to help with specific projects through out the year. Companies have helped prep for the school year, wrap gifts during the holidays, organize our library and more!
