TEKSGiving 2026

That’s a loaded question!  We’re a group of TEKnology people who’s focus is leading by example – elevating the TEKnology industry as a whole.  We’re not just an online community, we regularly get together LIVE to work on projects together, teach each other new skills, and once yearly, we get together to give back to a community in need that is chosen by the community.   In short – we bring the best of the best together and give back in ways never imagined – until now.

Think “Extreme Home Makeover – Nerd Edition” – Except this particular weekend, its TEKnology experts coming to upgrade the tech of an extremely worthy recipient.

TEKSGiving is TKW’s annual philanthropic initiative that falls between US & Canadian Thanksgiving.  The event mobilizes technology professionals, vendors, and volunteers across North America to deliver technology upgrades to worthy organizations in need. This 5th year, the focus is on addressing critical operational and technology needs at RMH Philly while raising regional and national awareness of its mission.  Whether your green or well seasoned – we all pitch in to do the most good for a community doing the most good. 

Every TEKSGiving is catered to the recipients needs. This year, Ronald McDonald house is in need of a great deal of technology at both of their locations so that they can keep their focus supporting families at their greatest time of need. 

We’ll be installing all new Access Control Systems and locks
Wireless and Wired Infrastructure including a new Fiber backbone.
Security Cameras
This is just the beginning!  Many surprises await!

There’s no better way to network with industry LEGENDS and manufacturers of your favorite tools and products.   We literally bring together people from all skillsets and industries as well as the people that make the products we install – all in one amazing weekend.  You’ll get to work in the literal trenches with some of your favorite integrators that you may have only ever “met” online. 

It’s the most fun you’ll ever have while giving back your gift of skills to the most worthy of recipients! We’ll even feed you!
