What we’re about
There are nearly two million people in the South Bay, and yet it can be incredibly hard to meet new friends. One of the easiest ways to meet people is through common interests, and this group aims to provide a wide variety of activities with the goal of allowing people to get to meet and hopefully become friends while doing interesting and fun things. We sponsor fun events every week all over the Bay Area, including dancing, speed dating, cocktail parties, and travel to exotic destinations worldwide.
Adults of all ages are welcome at almost all of our events.
All of our events benefit The Seva Foundation, www.seva.org, to restore sight to the blind. Every $50 we raise finances an eye surgery in one of the poor countries of the world!

See all- SUMMER MATCHMAKING PARTY!HARLEQUIN, San Francisco, CA$45.00
Start off the Summer RIGHT with someone special, 35-55, who shares your core values, at this fun party at an upscale venue! Matchbox is sweeping the nation, with parties in major cities across America. Please check-in 15 minutes early. Dress to impress. Saturday, June 21, 2025, 7-9pm.

Matching will be powered by Matchbox**. It’s a software that uses relationship science to find you your most compatible match at the party. It’s also the same technology behind the Marriage Pact, a tradition at 100+ universities that’s matched more than half a million people to date.
HOW IT WORKS:
– Upon arrival, you’ll take a matching questionnaire built by Matchbox’s team of relationship scientists.
– The Matchbox algorithm will identify your optimal match at the party, based on relationship science, AI, and Nobel Prize-winning economics.
– After mingling with the whole group, matches are revealed (3 rounds of matches)WHO IT’S FOR:
– The matching process is highly intentional—come with an open mind!
– If your match isn’t love at first sight, that’s okay! The algorithm is designed for long-term compatibility, so at baseline, you’ll be values-aligned.
– At the end of the day, this will be a great group of single people. Enjoy meeting everyone, and remember to be kind.EVENT STRUCTURE:
– This event is highly intentional and the matching will proceed on schedule. Please be on time.
– 7:00pm—the event begins on time

**FAQs:**
**Q: What is your refund policy?**
A: We need to balance the party, and that involves planning! So no refunds can be granted within 5 days of the event.
**Q: What if I don’t get a match?**
A: We aim to maintain a 50/50 male to female ratio but cannot guarantee that all attendees will show up, as life happens. If there is an uneven split, some matches will be paired platonically. But we hope you might make new friends.
**Q: How many interactions can I expect??**
A: Maximize your chances of connection! We highly encourage you to mingle with fellow participants before and after the structured activities. During the event, you'll first connect with others in a small group based on your shared interests, followed by personalized one-on-one connections.CO-SPONSORED by The Society of Single Professionals, Singles Bay Area, and dozens of singles organizations and meetups.
