What we’re about
We are a friendly group focused on ethical living, community connection, and bringing out the best in people. We explore together what it means to live ethically as individuals, in relationships, and in the larger world. Ethical Culture was founded in 1876 as an alternative to traditional religion. The focus is on human lives and relationships, rather than theology and ritual. Our core belief is in the inherent worth and dignity of each individual. Moved by what we see in the surrounding community, we collaborate to deliver meals and supplies to the Grace Solutions shelter for unhoused individuals in San Jose. We are a listening, caring, mutually supportive, and fun-loving fellowship. Learn more at our website, and pick an event here on our Meetup page to give us a try. Welcome!

See all- Sunday Spotlight: Travels in CubaNeutra House , Los Altos, CA
Noelle Gillies, a familiar face at ECSSV meetings, will tell us about her recent trip to Cuba, showing her travel photos, reflecting on the nation’s history and culture, and sharing her impressions of what contemporary life is like for the Cuban people.
This gathering is part of our monthly 'Spotlight' series, where we host speakers who broaden our ethical outlook on the world. We invite discussion, and we mix in a little live music, light refreshment, and community sharing. The program runs from 11 am to 12:30 pm, and all are welcome to linger afterward, share thoughts, and socialize. Better yet, stay for lunch! -- which we'll enjoy together on the patio from 12:45 to 1:45. Bring something to share if you like, vegan appreciated.
