Be Social Change New York

Be Social Change New York Meetup-

We are a community of change makers, social entrepreneurs, techies, non-profit workers, educators, students, and overall do and want-to-do gooders focused on igniting social innovation. Collectively, we are cultivating a network that fosters the spreading of new ideas, supports the creation of a social entrepreneurship infrastructure, and provides fun and engaging opportunities for members to make the world a better place.

We do this by creating unique event experiences that empower, connect and organize the social change community in New York through:

“Be” - events and panels that feature innovative social entrepreneurs and change makers from a wide-range of sectors and disciplines.
“Social” - meetups, breakfasts, and dinners that bring diverse groups of people together for idea sharing, networking, and collaboration.
“Change” - projects in partnership with local impact organizations to provide members with opportunities to create meaningful and sustainable change in New York.

Be Social Change New York focuses on creating diverse and integrated ways to make a difference locally while serving as a launching pad to create meaningful impact globally. Join us to become a catalyst for change with fellow New Yorkers!
