✨ Yesterday, our team had the honour of attending the SPARK Awards, organized by Big Brothers Big Sisters of Saint John

We are incredibly proud to celebrate Heather Acker, who was recognized with the Laurie Flood Leadership in Mentoring Award 🏆 for her outstanding commitment to mentorship and community leadership.

Although Heather couldn’t be there in person, the ConnexionWorks team was honoured to be present to represent her and celebrate this well-deserved recognition. Her heartfelt message was beautifully shared with the room by Matt White, reminding everyone that mentorship is about showing up, listening, and believing in people even when they struggle to believe in themselves.

We are deeply grateful for the honour of this award and for the reminder of how powerful mentorship can be. Heather’s words reflected not only her values, but also the impact of those she has mentored and the mentors who shaped her journey.

A big congratulations as well to all of the other nominees and award recipients recognized yesterday 👏✨ Your dedication, leadership, and commitment to making a difference in the lives of young people and in our community truly deserve to be celebrated.

Congratulations, Heather. Your leadership, generosity, and dedication continue to inspire us and so many others in our community. 💛✨

ConnexionWorks had the pleasure of attending the Black History Month Flag Raising Ceremony, officially marking the start of Black History Month 2026 and honouring 30 years of Black History Month in Canada. ✊🏾🖤

Held at Saint John City Hall, the ceremony was a powerful moment of reflection and celebration, recognizing Black excellence across generations, from nation builders who paved the way to the visionaries shaping the future. 🌍✨ It was an inspiring opportunity to come together as a community to honour the contributions, resilience, and leadership of Black communities across Canada.

A heartfelt thank you to PRUDE Inc. for the invitation and for their continued leadership in creating meaningful spaces for recognition, dialogue, and celebration. 🙌🏾 We are grateful to have been part of this important moment and proud to stand alongside community leaders and organizations in celebrating Black history, culture, and impact. 📚✨
