For the last three weeks, a new committee has met to establish monthly events for Coffee Party members and supporters. The committee meets Sundays at 7 p.m. ET / 4 p.m. PT. If you'd like to join us to assist with monthly event coordination, please sign up at www.coffeepartyusa.com/volunteer.
Over the last couple of years, Coffee Party’s online presence has grown larger than it has ever been. Many of our members and supporters have expressed interest in getting together in person, while others want to be more engaged on a national level. With the help of our volunteer force, we can begin to provide regular events to inspire people to either get together in person or take actions on a national level as Coffee Party USA. Our goal is to create engaging monthly event possibilities for both community and national level. While we are getting together, in person and online, we are strengthening our relationships and ability to work together.
Recently, we completed Coffee Party Movie Night with the film, “This American Journey” and interviewed the filmmakers. The original concept was to have a social event every month that is “easy” to coordinate and host,
and easy to manage. While 25+ people ordered the film through Coffee Party, it was also available for free via Hulu and for purchase through Amazon. We don’t know how many people actually hosted private or public events and did a poor job of providing a way for hosts to communicate with us. This is why we need you!
Here is the tentative calendar worked out on Sunday 11/9 by the Monthly Events Committee.
