Join us for an unforgettable evening of inspiration, recognition, and celebration at the 2025 Connect Community Awards! Held at the prestigious Grand Helios Hotel, this highly anticipated in-person event returns on Friday, November 7, 2025, and promises to be our biggest and best yet.

Each year, we honor the individuals and organizations that go above and beyond to create lasting, positive change in our communities and across the industry. From visionary leaders and dedicated volunteers to purpose-driven businesses and impactful initiatives, the Connect Community Awards shine a spotlight on those who lead with heart, innovation, and integrity.

🎉 What to Expect:

  • Heartfelt stories of service and leadership
  • Recognition of outstanding achievements across multiple categories
  • A vibrant evening of networking, entertainment, and celebration
  • Gourmet food, signature drinks, and live performances

Connect with a dynamic community of changemakers, celebrate shared values, and leave inspired to make an even greater impact.

📅 Mark your calendars and be part of a night that honors the very best in community excellence. We can't wait to welcome you to the 2025 Connect Community Awards!


Sponsorship opportunities for the Connect Community Awards are intentionally limited and priced at a premium to help manage vendor attendance—ensuring the spotlight remains on the true stars of the evening: our community managers. This allows for a more intimate and meaningful celebration of their dedication, leadership, and the lasting impact they have on the communities they serve.
