The annual Rise for a Purpose Breakfast, sponsored by Kandas Private Wealth Advisors is a powerful morning of connection, inspiration, and impact in support of the Arizona Anti-Trafficking Network (AATN).

This year’s event will take place on Thursday, October 01, 2026, at the Westin Kierland Resort and Spa in Scottsdale, Arizona. We anticipate over 500 guests in attendance, including community leaders, advocates, and professionals united in the fight to end human trafficking.

The morning begins with a coffee and networking hour, offering attendees the chance to connect with like-minded individuals and explore a curated silent auction, with all proceeds directly supporting AATN’s statewide programs.

Following the networking hour, guests will hear from compelling speakers, including a survivor leader who will share their personal story and message of resilience. The program will also feature the presentation of our Game Changer Awards, recognizing individuals and organizations making a significant impact in anti-trafficking efforts across Arizona.

The event will conclude with an exciting live auction, offering exclusive experiences and high-value items to help raise critical funds for AATN’s prevention, training, outreach, and survivor support initiatives.

This is more than just a breakfast, it’s a movement. We invite you to stand with us as we work toward a future where no one is bought, sold, or exploited.
