About us
We sponsor over 100 fun parties each year all over the San Francisco Bay Area. Adults of all ages welcome. This includes Dance Parties, Cocktail Parties, Speed Dating, Singles Travel, and much more!
All of our parties are fundraisers for The Seva Foundation, to restore sight to the blind. Every $50 we raise finances a cataract surgery in one of the poor countries of the world!
So have fun at our parties, meet new friends, and help us restore sight to the 15 million poor people in the world who need help in financing their eye surgeries!
Discounts for all of our parties are available on our main website
Featured event
Africa Great Migration Photo Safari+Zanzibar Extension! Journey of a Lifetime..
We all have seen Lion King in one form or another . . . It's now time to go to the source.
Our meetup is off to Africa for The Great Migration Photo Safari! We did this amazing trip in the summer of 2024 and everybody had a blast! (see photos in the link below)
Encounter the exotic wildlife of the Serengeti! Marvel at the lions, zebras, elephants and so many majestic animals we have only seen in the zoo or in movies.
On Serengeti's vast, treeless plains tens of thousands of hoofed animals are constantly on the move in search of fresh grassland. This is a once-in-a-life-time opportunity to experience the best game viewing in Africa!
Like every trip we do with Meetup, this one is personally crafted to offer the best places and best use of time.
The itinerary is:
July 5 Arrival Kilimanjaro Intl Airport and transfer to Arusha
July 6 Arusha to Tarangire National Park
July 7 Ngorongoro Crater full day game drive
July 8 Ngorongoro to Serengeti National Park (Central Seronera area)
July 9 Serengeti (Central)
July 10 Northern Serengeti (Kogatende)
July 11 Northern Serengeti (Kogatende)
July 12 Northern Serengeti (Kogatende) to Lake Natron
July 13 Lake Natron to Arusha
July 14 Arusha to Kilimanjaro International Airport
All of these locations don't mean much to you at the moment, but after the trip you will remember them forever as some of the best places you have ever visited!
