🎮 Power Up With CTKids!

ConnectiKids is teaming up with Dave & Buster’s in Manchester for a fun-filled evening that turns games into growth for Hartford youth. Hosted by our amazing Counselors-in-Training, this event is all about supporting our mentoring, tutoring, and enrichment programs — and all you have to do is play! We’re selling $10 and $20 Power Cards, with 50% of every card sold going directly to ConnectiKids. Then, join us on Thursday, November 13th, starting at 5:00 PM at Dave & Buster’s for a night of games, food, and community. When you use your Power Card that evening, 20% of what you spend on games, food, and drinks will also go back to ConnectiKids. It’s a win-win: you have fun, and Hartford students gain opportunities to thrive. Bring your friends and family, enjoy the night, and help our young leaders level up — one game at a time.

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.

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!
