Between group texts that never end, emails no one reads, and social media feeds full of noise, keeping a ministry, school, or sports organization connected is harder than it should be. connect. gives your community its own private, branded app — a single place to share content, communicate safely, and build real engagement without the distractions of public platforms.^1
Built by MAP Sports Co-Mission, LLC out of Lexington, Kentucky, connect. lets organizations set up fully customized app spaces with their own branding, colors, logos, and content channels. Administrators can send push notifications, manage events, share resources (documents, images, videos), and communicate one-to-one or one-to-many through fully monitored messaging.^1 Sub-groups let you target content to specific teams, classes, or ministries, while a built-in news feed keeps everyone engaged with timely updates. The platform is available on iOS, Android, and web.^2
connect. serves a broad range of organizations — churches, Christian schools, universities, youth ministries, sports teams, and nonprofits. Notably, the app is positioned to help Kentucky schools comply with Senate Bill 181, which requires all staff-student electronic communication to occur through designated, traceable systems.^1
Why Organizations Love connect.: "Our Asbury connect. app is helping us disciple, testify, and communicate with our campus in a safe environment by creating our own private social media space. It helps us 'redeem the scroll' for our students. The content they receive 'in the scroll' is edifying and encouraging and delivered to them where, how and when they want it." — Jennifer McChord, Vice President of Enrollment & Marketing, Asbury University^1
One parent shared: "Love how easy it is to get communication from my school and teams my kids are on."^2
