This group is for New Muslims (converts/reverts) but all are always welcome. At least once a month we will all gather to c …

Greetings ladies! I've noticed in the past couple of years that life changes have caused some separation from friends and I'm finding the need to make new connections. I don't have as much in common with my old friends as I used to. If you've felt the same way (due to marriages, kids, jobs, moving away, etc), this could be the group for you. Note, this is absolutely not a dating group. I'm a fun, free-spirited 31 yr old woman and am starting a group for women in the Northern NJ area ages 28-38 …

We got tired of being poor and attended a meet-up in NYC with an Investors Group. We liked what we heard A LOT and are starting a Hudson County Team; we're looking for people to join us not to work HARD but to work SMART in Real Estate. We're looking for teammates that are entrepreneurial, enthusiastic, motivated, and driven. Join us and earn while you learn.

Do you live in Jersey City and find yourself wondering, where are all the lesbians? Hoboken, I'm talking about you too! I thought there would be no better way to get us together than with food. So, if you are single or coupled, have any interest in food and wine (or film, working out, networking, whatever) let's get together and be social, and of course, eat.

I'm starting this group because I like to read, I like to have brunch and I like to meet people. Let's enjoy reading, discussing, and coffee!

That said, we do not allow businesses of any type to join. This is not the place to promote your adoption agency, law firm or other business.

A great way to get in a workout and meet other parents with similar interests.
