About this Event

🌟 Connect for Good Purpose Forum Gather & Discover: Generous Together

🗓️ October 30th, 2025 | 11:30 AM–1:00 PM

📍 Western Colorado Community Foundation | 128 North 5th Street, Grand Junction



From Inspiration to Conversation: Bringing Generosity to Life

Last month, we heard how generosity flows through both everyday leaders and long-standing institutions. This month, we’ll turn that inspiration inward—asking: What does generosity look like in your life, your work, and your community connections?

Instead of speakers, this Purpose Forum is designed for deeper conversations at the table. Through simple, thoughtful questions, you’ll have the chance to share stories, exchange ideas, and discover new ways generosity can take root in daily life. There’s also time to connect more informally—over lunch and casual mingling—to spark business, civic, and community relationships.

Connect for Good’s Purpose Forum—always a high-possibility space for connection and community dialogue—returns on October 30th with a focus on generosity in action. These gatherings bring together people across sectors and backgrounds to build trust, share experiences, and strengthen the fabric of our community—one conversation and connection at a time.

Whether you’re here to make new business contacts, expand your civic leadership, or simply connect with others who care about the Grand Valley, the Purpose Forum is your space to do it.


🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Who Should Attend:

  • Business professionals and entrepreneurs seeking genuine connections beyond the usual circles
  • Civic and government leaders interested in fresh, community-driven dialogue
  • Nonprofit leaders and board members ready to expand visibility and partnerships
  • Newcomers eager to meet people and contribute locally
  • Curious community-minded folks ready to learn, connect, and discover what’s possible


Why Attend:

  • Connect naturally with business professionals, civic leaders, and community changemakers—building trust that can lead to future collaborations.
  • Share ideas and experiences that support both personal growth and community well-being
  • Discover people and opportunities you didn’t know you were missing
  • Leave with one small action you’re ready to take—and the relationships to support it


💡 What to Expect:

🍽️ A fresh, nourishing lunch

🗣️ Small-group conversations with easy, thoughtful questions that spark meaningful dialogue

🤝 Netweaving that helps you connect genuinely, discover shared goals, and grow your network

🎁 Everyday wisdom—insights and ideas from fellow attendees that can enrich your life and work


💬 From Our Community:

“Today’s Purpose Forum was perfect, thank you for putting it on! Worth the drive from Cedaredge :)” — Attendee, August 2025


🌐 Our unique approach to netweaving sets Connect for Good apart.

Instead of asking “What’s in it for me?” — we ask “What’s in it for us?

We focus on collective impact and shared success—netweaving people, ideas, and opportunities that strengthen community and commerce.

Whether you’re new to the area or just beginning to explore ways to connect, the Purpose Forum offers inspiration and a chance to be part of something bigger.

Join us and experience why Connect for Good is being called “the community gathering we didn’t know we needed.”
