Connections is a nonprofit youth outreach in Tipp City that happens to carry penny candy and craft soda. Our main goal is to provide a safe space for teens to gather after school. We hope to nurture positive relationships within the community by connecting teens with caring adults who willingly share their gifts and time. The retail portion of Connections is a means to that end. Connecting with artists, musicians, faith leaders, and teachers allows students the opportunity to grow and become all that God has designed them to be. Performance and service opportunities provide a way for teens to explore their gifts and give back to the community.
Connections is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization that is in need of financial reinforcement in order to continue our ministry to youth. Consider giving a one-time gift or providing ongoing support!
Think of an old-fashioned candy counter. Imagine the smells, the sights, and the fun of choosing just how much you want! Currently we carry a selection of about 25 candies that are sold by weight or by the piece. Tell us if we don't have your favorite treat!
Live music much of the time is a highlight of Connections, sometimes provided by patrons at our Open Mic events. When no one is at the mic, we spin vinyl with classics from across the decades. Board games and cards are also available to entertain you.
We carry all natural Root Beer, Cream Soda, and Buckeye State Scarlet Soda from Root Naturals, a Cincinnati craft soda company. We also sell Grape Nehi, Flying Cauldron Butter Beer, and a southern Ohio citrus-flavored favorite called Ski.
