What we’re about
This group is operated by the Tri-City Freethinkers (July 26, 2011). [IRS ID#31669]
The Tri-City Freethinkers is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit community outreach organization serving the religion-free population of the Tri-Cities metropolitan area (Kennewick, Pasco, Richland, and West Richland) by bringing nonreligious community members together for support, education, and advocacy. We sponsor a range of social and educational events throughout the year including guest speakers from both the national secular movement and from our local/regional area. We provide opportunities for our members to engage with the broader community and elected officials and perform volunteer work in partnership with other local organizations.
We are a diverse group consisting of atheists, agnostics, skeptics, heathens, secular humanists, and pantheists; men and women; young, old, and in between; straight and LGBT; all ethnic and cultural heritages; highly educated to minimally educated; affluent and not; and people from all religious backgrounds and all ends of the political spectrum.
Affiliated with American Atheists and a member of the Mid-Columbia Coalition of Reason, the Tri-City Freethinkers offers a welcoming environment for nontheistic residents seeking relief from the religiosity of southeastern Washington.
We encourage you to follow our public page on Facebook, join our Facebook group, follow us on Twitter @TCFreethinker, and join us at one of our meetings or events.
