The Connection is committed to be a place that provides vital community service to those individuals who need us most. A place where everyone can participate and feel welcome, regardless of their economic circumstance. Here are a few small ways you can help us make a big difference in the lives of people right here in our community:
- Support us when you shop on Amazon Prime Day – You shop. Amazon gives.
Amazon’s third-annual Prime Day is on Tuesday, July 11 and will feature more than 100,000 deals exclusively for Prime members, making it one of the biggest shopping days of the year. Shop https://smile.amazon.com and select The Connection as your charity – Amazon will donate to The Connection’s Scholarship Fund every time you shop Amazon Smile!
- Vote for us daily in the Sue Adler 100th Home Local Charity Program
To celebrate the closing of their 100th home, The Sue Adler Team will be donating $20,000 between 6 local charities… and they have selected The Connection’s Scholarship Fund as one of their beneficiaries!
To make the pot a little sweeter, a long time donor of The Connection has generously agreed to MATCH the amount we win, so now your daily vote has double the impact! Voting began in April and now we are in the home stretch – the Sue Adler Team believes they are on schedule to close on their 100th home at some point in July.
Simply go to http://sueadler.com/100th-home/ , select The Connection and submit! Need a reminder to vote everyday? Email stop by the Front Desk or email info@theconnectiononline.org to sign up for our daily reminder emails!
- Sign up for a recurring monthly gift to make a BIG impact
Donating just $5 a month for a year can buy books for a parent learning English in our ESL program. A gift of $10 a month for a year can help provide a week of healthy dinners to a family whose mother is undergoing chemotherapy. Donations of any size to The Connection will directly benefit neighbors in our community. Please contact Lauren at lauren.nisenson@theconnectiononline.org if you’d like to increase your donation’s impact by making a monthly gift.
