    #### ABOUT THE YPOSEATTLE "LAST TUESDAY" HAPPY HOUR

    Launched back in 2011, Last Tuesday is a casual networking happy hour event (no name tags, no sales pitches, no judgment) that typically falls on the last Tuesday of every month.

    Our Happy Hour is more than just a social gathering; it's our flagship monthly event that brings together community members in a relaxed, no-pressure environment. Held at locally owned establishments during traditionally slow nights, these evenings are designed to celebrate and support our vibrant local businesses. Attendees can enjoy a casual setting to unwind, meet a diverse group of engaging professionals, and experience the true spirit of community.

    Purpose of the Happy Hour Event: The purpose of our Happy Hour is to foster meaningful connections within the community while providing tangible support to local charities and businesses. By sync'ing our happy hours with corporate partnerships, we amplify the impact of each event. For example: every dollar spent is matched by our Corporate Members and donated to local causes. Additionally, special incentives like sponsored drink tickets or discounted experiences are offered to those who contribute to our integrated donation drives. These events are crafted to enrich our community economically and socially, creating a positive ripple effect throughout the areas we live, work, and play in.

    The Happy Hour objective is simple: Support local bars, restaurants and charities while connecting with other community minded "professionals".

    We prioritize hosting safe, inclusive and healthy environments and intend to do what we can to make sure you and your fellow Community Members can enjoy themself in a settings free from judgement, discrimination or harassment. Please, before arriving to the event, get to know the YPC Event Code of Conduct.
