Details

Join us for our ever-popular monthly board games night!

==== Changes to Meetup fees ====

Meetup has now changed its relationship with PayPal and how they collect money for events. As such, the total cost for purchasing a ticket via PayPal or credit card is $9.13, of which we get $7.06 that covers the entry to the games night.

If you want to pay $7.20 by credit card instead of $9.13, please email hello@activatemh.com.au to receive a secure link via the payment system Square.

==== About the board games night ====

2 weeks into the establishment of Activate Mental Health, group founder Rahul Seth pitched at a local crowdfunding dinner in Victoria Park that was hosted by the Vic Park Collective. Rahul won $890 from that night and donated a quarter of those funds to another mental health charity, but with the remaining funds purchased board games to start a monthly board games night. The nights have been running at the Victoria Park Community Centre since August 2016.

==== Snacks provided by donation ====

We provide share packets of chips and biscuits for you through the night, which are available from the kitchen. If you have the ability to pay a donation, such as loose change, we would be highly appreciative of a contribution. There is a money box available next to the snacks. Any excess donations will be spent on more snacks such as chocolates on future games nights.
