This is our 3rd??? Thanksgiving together? We just wanted to take a moment to thank you all for being a part of our community. We`re built differently than pretty much any other group or organization - and it`s because of each and every one of you embodying the mission of this community.

To those that lend helping hands either virtually - or in person - YOU are the reason this community has been able to grow and be an example for others to follow. We`ve had our growing pains - but we`re grateful to all of you that have been a part of that growth - AND we share in those successes together as a community.

Celebrate w/ your loved (and loathed!) ones today - and be grateful for all you have - be grateful that we get to do the things we do in our respective businesses, because honestly, not everyone gets to love the position they`re in, and for that, we`re incredibly fortunate.

Cheers to you all - and to our Canadian friends who celebrated during TEKSGiving - just know that we celebrate today with you as well!

When TKW started, we envisioned a community where professionals shared skills, wisdom, and experiences—raising collective knowledge and abilities. We dreamed of seasoned pros mentoring newcomers, emerging teks introducing cutting-edge tools, and collaboration across all walks of life. We wanted a space for sharing job opportunities, building vendor relationships, and ultimately making the world a better place.

Today, that vision is reality. To keep this momentum going, we need your help. Running TKW—Slack, marketing, legal filings, and even shipping sticker, comes with a price tag. That’s why we hold an Annual Appeal, asking members to give back. Your tax-deductible donation helps us keep TKW free and thriving.

Thank you for being part of this incredible journey. Together, we’ll keep learning, growing, and building a brighter future.

Brian Domanico from ASSA ABLOY Group shows us how to cut in a strike with the proper tools - and even finishes a door frame off in the most Bob Ross way possible.

#TEKSGiving was such a great time - we sincerely hope to see you at our next event - #TEKFEST in Nashville.

Meet Rachel! Another 1st timer to #TEKSGiving - Rachel jumped in and learned all about #accesscontrol #structuredcabling and helped install some cameras for the 1st time.

Rachel also helped certify the cabling with the fastest cloud certifier on the marjet - the @trend_networks IVS Certifier.

Most exciting was learning to use the @verticalcable #ipunch tool - which is literally the most innovative game changing tool on the market.

Check out the video - and be sure to turn your device horizontally to get the best view!
