Koala-ty Giving: A New Year for Effective Philanthropy Down Under

This January, let’s bring in the new year by gathering to celebrate the potential of high-impact philanthropy, learning more about effective giving, and connecting with people who care deeply about using their resources to make the world much better for all its inhabitants for generations to come.

Mingle over food and drinks while engaging with effective giving advocates and philanthropic experts from Giving What We Can, One for the World, GiveWell, Giving Green Australia, EA Sydney and EA Australia. This event is a chance to reflect on your giving journey, set impactful goals for 2024, and join a community that’s reshaping the world of philanthropy.

The event will start with drinks and hors d’oeuvres followed by some short presentations and Q&As. It will feature experts in effective giving, people who’ve made giving effectively and significantly a part of their lives, and showcase the work of high-impact projects.

Invite someone who’s curious about effective giving and join us in envisioning how our giving in 2024 can change lives. Spaces are limited, so be sure to reserve your spot and start your year on a generous note.
