Introducing ConnectiKids Monthly Family Movie Nights! 🍿

At ConnectiKids, we believe some of the best memories are made when we come together. That’s why we’re introducing our Monthly Family Movie Nights—a fun, family-friendly way to connect with our community while supporting our students and their families.

Each month, we’ll feature a new theme and offer three movie options for you to vote on! You help choose the featured film, making every movie night a shared experience shaped by our community.

We know many families have streaming services at home, but these movie nights are about more than just watching a film. They’re about spending quality time together, meeting other families, creating lasting memories, and building a stronger, more connected community.

Best of all, your participation helps raise funds for ConnectiKids students and families, supporting our mission to educate, enrich, and empower local youth.

Grab your family, cast your vote, enjoy some snacks, and join us for a movie night with a meaningful purpose! ❤️

ABOUT CONNECTIKIDS

ConnectiKids fulfills its 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.

OUR HISTORY

ConnectiKids, Inc. is committed to improving the lives of Hartford children and began in 1978 when volunteers initially got together to provide a positive summer experience for third grade students at West Middle School, a public elementary school in the Asylum Hill neighborhood. Upon completing their first summer, the volunteers realized there was a greater need for assistance and with help from local corporations, decided to provide occasional after-school homework help for those students. The group formed what was to be known for the next twenty years as the West Middle School Committee.

OUR IMPACT

The name of the organization was changed to ConnectiKids in October of 1999 to reflect better the program's wide-ranging impact and the connections it makes among children and adults from many walks of life. ConnectiKids has now completed 46 years of operation, having grown to provide multiple schools with both afterschool Tutoring and Mentoring and Enrichment Programs, as well as a Summer Program for over 300 children annually. With the passion of the staff, volunteers, donors, and community ConnectiKids has been able to impact over 15,000 children's lives. We hope you want to become part of our story as we continue to educate, enhance, and empower young people.

WATCH FOR A CAUSE

Please join us for movie night and while doing so help us continue our mission of connecting 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!
