San Diego Humanists (formerly Humanist Association)

Each Saturday join a group of Secular Humanists to talk about politics, current events, religion, philosophy, and any thing else that comes to mind.

This is the place where you progressive-minded secular-leaning folks come together to vent, learn, and make friends.

We tend to let our hair down so you may experience a deep discussion of an impromptu dissertation on Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics followed by a rousing round of anger at the latest political debacle, and then maybe some dirty jokes here and there.

We run the gamut from ivory tower to dumpster fire and everything in between.

If you are not in the mood for progressive talk, this might not be the space for you, but if you are in need of progressive talk, you will get the breather you've been looking for for ages!

We have been doing this almost every Saturday since 2008 and let's face it, there hasn't been a cup of coffee involved in years, so no more "Coffee" but plenty of the conversation that you know and love.

Fellow Humanists,

We talk about how thoughts and prayers aren’t enough, so it is important for us to show what actually makes a difference in the lives of people who need help. By demonstrating that we are invested in improving the world around us, we should be able to break down stigma and negative preconceptions about atheists.

Henceforth we've been looking for opportunities for showing our presence for community service, especially with Homeless Outreach for quite a time. We are looking forward to lending our support to an existing non-profit organization "Streets of Hope" and giving a lasting, positive impact on society at large.
This would be a weekly event every Monday night. Although we would love to see many of the Humanists reaching and helping the humans on the street, a lot of times the number of volunteers is way more than we could have anticipated. We would like to limit the number of volunteers to 10 for now.
Please RSVP and if the number of volunteers is reached the limit, and you still wanted to be part of this, please add your comments to this event, we could try to reach out to the NGO to add more volunteers from our group.

What to Bring?
There is no need to bring anything to help the team serve the homeless. Just show your presence.
However, if you would like, you could bring:

• Bottled water
• Toiletries and Hygiene items
• Clothing, especially socks
• Blankets
• Tent
• Sleeping Bags

Helping by cash to the homeless is not encouraged.

Parking: Although we do meet at Smarts & Final parking, we do not recommend parking at Smarts & Final's parking. There are plenty of spaces available for street parking near the store.

Responses on messages: Apologies to those who tried before and who are trying to reach us through Meetup Messages, we are not able to check the messages often. It is very rare, when Naresh or the Streets of Hope's Homeless Outreach Organizer, Dan is not present at the event. But to everyone's surprise, this event(Streets of Hope's Homeless Outreach) has NEVER missed any Mondays for the past 11 years(Including COVID times and riots). That would mean that no matter if we are not able to respond, feel free to reach there and mention our group. Everyone is invited.

Humanist Hub Live is San Diego’s weekly gathering for curious minds and compassionate people. Join us every Thursday at 7 PM for a lively opening monologue, special guests, conversation, and community. Meet interesting people, explore big ideas, engage with current events, and discover ways to make a positive impact. Come for the show, stay for the friendships, and help build a more thoughtful, connected, and engaged community.
This is a new venue to us. If you have any questions you can call our text 321-271-5319. Come be a part of our growth!
