At Connecting Point Computer Center, giving back to our community is part of who we are. In April 2026, our team proudly participated in our monthly Jean Day initiative, raising funds in support of IVAR.

Jean Day is a simple but meaningful tradition at our office—team members contribute a small donation in exchange for the opportunity to dress casually for the day. While the idea is lighthearted, the impact is real. Each month, the funds collected are directed toward organizations that make a difference in our local communities.

This April, we were honored to select IVAR as our featured recipient. The organization’s commitment to supporting individuals and families aligns closely with our values of service, community, and connection.

Through the generosity of our staff, we were able to make a donation that will help support IVAR’s ongoing efforts and programs. More importantly, it reflects our team’s shared commitment to making a positive impact beyond the workplace.

We’re proud of our employees for continuing to show up—not just for our clients, but for our community as well.
