Hello everyone,

At the last event, several attendees told me they thought a donation-based system would be a good way to run our events.

It’s already been a year since I started organizing these meetups. For the past year, I’ve been personally covering the $70 monthly organizer subscription fee. While I truly believe it’s been worth it, I would be lying if I said it hasn’t been a financial burden at times.

So, I’ve decided to try a donation-based approach for those who feel moved to contribute.

There will be two ways to donate:

1. You can send a donation via my email: **dydwns514@gmail.com**
2. Or you can donate in cash at the event — I’ll be setting up a donation box at the venue.

Please feel free to contribute in whatever way is most convenient for you. Any amount from $1 or more is greatly appreciated.

All donations will go directly toward covering the group’s subscription fee, event preparation, and supporting the team that helps organize these meetups.

Over the past year, running this Meetup group has allowed me to meet many wonderful people and create meaningful experiences. If I had to pick one thing I’m most proud of since coming to Canada, it would be creating this group. That’s why I’ll continue doing my best to show my gratitude to everyone who joins our events.

Thanks
Leo

P.S
I’m also looking for a new co-organizer.
If you’re someone who enjoys practicing English, making new friends, and finds great value in being appreciated by others, I truly believe this could be a great opportunity for you — just as it has been for me.
If you’re interested, you can either send me a message or simply talk to me directly at the event.

Our meetup is for people who use English as a second language at an intermediate level (not mandatory). The purpose is to practice speaking and make foreign friends. I hope you come with an open mind, ready to have comfortable and enjoyable conversations.
To briefly explain how the event will be structured, I plan to have three sections in total.
First, we’ll have a group chat session with groups of 2 to 5 people.
Next, we will have two different types of English quiz games for about 30 minutes. ( Depending on the situation, we might play only one game.)
Lastly, we’ll have a group chat session with groups of 2 to 5 people.
(The group sizes may vary depending on the total number of participants.
)
Please note that you should bring your own water, and you are free to use the restroom as needed.
I've booked at Memorial Park Library, Meeting Room 1 on 30/May/2025 - from 03:30 PM to 05:30 PM
Note that even if you have joined the group, you need to register separately for this event.
