Share. Connect. Grow.Our goal is to Connect generations through music and conversation and thus facilitate the growth of young people. |
Our Vision
Connect2Grow is the vision of Mercy Jones. To prepare for a solo concert with the Taranaki Symphony Orchestra ('Mercy Plays Mendelssohn'), Mercy contacted 7 rest homes around New Plymouth and offered to come perform for their residents. After several of these performances, she recognised the value of these performances for her confidence and the joy the residents were getting. She founded Connect2Grow to continue the initiative of bringing young people into rest homes to connect with people of the older generation through sharing one of their gifts and taking time to connect.
ShareShare a talent or gift. Share the joy of music. Share your journey and goals. Share yourself.
