About us

CLICK HERE to see our main meetup events calendar http://www.socialfundation.com

Who should join us ?

Singles from the US, Europe, Africa, Asia, Oceania interested to meet other singles in New York City, and being interested in meeting people from various countries, religions, ethnics and cultures.

Our group is opened to any sexual orientation, yet restricted to open-minded and fun people of all ages, and with one thematic event per week/month, suggested by members and/or organizers.

Why should you join ?
You should join us if you are single and interested in cultural diversity. You will have opportunities to learn from others, to challenge yourself, have fun, hopefully you will find the right special someone. Our members mingle, but they also make true friends, as members having found their soul mate through us are more than welcome to stay and share this experience.
Our members are singles, but most importantly, they are unique, that's the thing that matters the most in everyone's quest for love. What can you expect out of our group ? Our typical activities will be going out together, meet, mingle, and learn from each others. We like the concept of speed dating but we think a "slow dating" event is even better, themed parties, watching movies, going together to museums exhibition and tours with curators.
What we are NOT and we do NOT do :
We respect individuals (you) as well as Meetup group's community guidelines. In particular :
● We don't primarily promote a product, business, venue or service
● We don't divert members to another website and we don't act as a lead generator for another website
● We never send spam and we don't primarily broadcast messages rather than have events
● We don't create this group to promote a one-time event, we intend to have several events together

No experience is necessary and this is the perfect party whether you come alone or with a group of friends; by the end of the night you will have interacted with everyone in the room! This is 100% fun. Can you catch the killer? Cocktails and chaos await!
    Our interactive murder mystery nights are a fun and different way to socialize on a Saturday evening! For each of these adventures, everyone at the party plays a role and everyone is a suspect! When you arrive our staff will be on hand to welcome you and give you a character to play in the story. It is designed to be fun and not super hard. During the night our host will narrate the chain of events that lead to the murder then it is up to you to solve the case!
    What to expect?
    You will be given a character that may be the person who everyone is looking for or you may be the person who solves the mystery. (You will not know right away). Our hosts will set the mood and explain what you need to do which is pretty much relax and enjoy the party with all of the other guests who are playing characters too!
    What's the story?
    Your presence is requested at Mystery Manor for an evening of intrigue as family and friends gather to honor the late millionaire Rick A. Rochester during the reading of his will.
    One of Rick’s final wishes was that his will be unveiled at a lavish celebration attended by the people who mattered most in his life. But with an eccentric ex-wife, meddling in-laws, suspicious servants, and a flirtatious pool boy all hoping for a piece of the fortune, tensions are running high.
    As one of Rick’s closest friends, relatives, or associates, you’ll need to uncover the truth behind his mysterious death before someone else becomes the next victim.
    Will you walk away with an inheritance…
    …or will you not walk out at all?

    Age-specific? All are welcome 21 and over.
