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, The Life You Can Save, 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.
