The impact of CONNECT 2026 extended far beyond the conference.

Through our Paws & Hands philanthropy initiative, the Prospera community came together to support Paws Of Honor f Honor and A Soldier's Hands, two organizations dedicated to serving those who have sacrificed for our country. From providing care for retired military and law enforcement K9s to supporting deployed service members overseas, these causes honor the full journey of service.

Together, we’ve raised over $40,000 and assembled 600 care packages at CONNECT to send to deployed troops around the world.

Thank you to our attendees, sponsors, and volunteers for helping make a meaningful difference for service members, veterans, law enforcement personnel, and the K9s who served alongside them.
