What we’re about
To find events—both online and in-person—go to our website https://www.finding-female-friends-50.com/about
FFF>50 is an all-volunteer community where women >50 come to connect, make friends, and share their passions and expertise. Please, become a member and use us. As soon as you join, you are able to attend, create and host events (no size too small or too big).
This is our Chicago chapter. It's for finding, attending, and hosting in-person events. If you want to attend and create online events, you'll also need to join our National chapter. You can find all our locations on our website: https://www.FFF50.org
Once you become a member, just use one or both of the links below to become a host. If you want help doing that (whether brainstorming ideas, or using the MU event creation page, or anything else) just reach out to me, Dale, at dale@FFF50.org

If you're a member of any of our local chapters, I have a great way for you to meet other members who live nearby. I call them 6@6, meaning 6 members at 6:00—or 10@1, 8@12:00, etc. You just fill out the form below, and I will post your get-together for you. Nothing could be easier!

I listen to you and hear your frustration. Too many Meetup emails, and too hard to find the events you want. So, introducing 🥁 🥁 🥁 FFF50.org!
Want to find events faster?
On our site there are two calendars—one for online events, and another for in-person events. You will find both easier to use. And when you select the event on our calendar, it will open up that same event on Meetup where you'll be able to RSVP.

THIS IS NOT AN EVENT (YET). IGNORE THE DATE & TIME
ANNOUNCING: the 6@6! The 6@6 is both an event and a template for future events, and, most importantly, an opportunity to make friends in a setting that makes that easy.
The 6@6 Event is a gathering of 4-12 nearby members, meeting on any designated day for a super-casual, no-preparation, eazy-peezy-getting-to-know-you-thing. It's about making new friends in an intimate nonjudgmental setting where where the talk is about things that matter to us as women of a certain age.
It can be in your home, a cafe, a park. It can be on any day of the week. It can be 8@6 (8 guests at 6:00), or 4@6 or a 6@2. It can be once-a-month or one time. The point is proliferation. Women >50 need community. And this is an easy way to get there. You won’t even need to write up an announcement. All you have to do to host a 6@6 is to fill out this secure form indicating your day/time preferences, and I’ll post your event. You only need to show up!
Ladies, we're here for a reason! And that reason is built right into the name of this group. If even one or two of you start the ball rolling, it can set the whole chapter moving. When I started FFF>50 in LA in 2016, it was a selfish endeavor...I needed more friends. Little did I know that the effort of one woman—me!—would galvanize an organization of 10,000+ members, and result in 100's of new friendships across the county.
Start the ball rolling 🤜🏼🏀!
Host a 6@6.
