**🌍 Can Doing Good Be More Effective?**

**Come find out at Thessaloniki’s first-ever Effective Altruism event.**

If you care about solving big problems—like global health, animal suffering, climate risk, or the future of humanity—but think most solutions feel vague, wasteful, or just not enough… you’re not alone.

This is for the people who ask:

* “What *actually* works?”
* “Where can I have real impact?”
* “Is there a community of people who think like this?”

Yes, there is. And we’re building it—right here in Thessaloniki.

⸻

**👀 What’s Happening**

* A **quick intro to Effective Altruism** – a global movement using science, reason, and data to figure out how to help others as much as possible. Think: heart meets evidence.
* **TED Talk screening** – a powerful, bite-sized talk to spark new ideas.
* **Special guest** ⭐️: Kyle Lucchese – Fresh from the international EA scene, Kyle's only in town for a few days —this is your chance to hear what he’s learned, what actually works, and where the EA movement is heading next.
* **Open discussion + hangout** – ask questions, debate ideas, or just vibe with curious, thoughtful people.
* **Free snacks + good company** – always.

**📅 Details**

* **When:** Friday 30th of May, at 6:00 PM
* **Where:** Alte Fablon, Filippou 71, Thessaloniki 546 35
* **Language:** We’d love to do everything in Greek—but part of what makes Effective Altruism powerful is being part of a global conversation. So while we’ll make space for Greek in discussions, the core content, resources and most opportunities will be in **English**.
* **Cost:** Free (with snacks!)

⸻

**👋 Who’s this for?**

* You’ve never heard of EA, but you’re curious.
* You care about helping others and want to be smarter about it.
* You like ideas, questions, and people who think deeply and act boldly.

Whether you’re into philosophy, tech, science, policy—or you’re just impact-curious—this is a great first step.
