**About Be Social Change New York Meetup

We are a community of change makers, social entrepreneurs, start-ups, techies, non-profits, educators and overall do and want-to-do gooders. Collectively, we are cultivating a network that fosters the spreading of new and innovative ideas, supports building an infrastructure for social entrepreneurship, and provides opportunities for members to make the world a better place. 

We do this by creating unique event experiences that empower, connect and organize the social change community in New York through:

• “Be” - events and panels that feature innovative social entrepreneurs and change makers from a wide-range of sectors and disciplines.
• “Social” - meetups, breakfasts, and dinners that bring diverse groups of people together for idea sharing, networking, and collaboration.
• “Change” - projects in partnership with local impact organizations to provide members with opportunities to create meaningful and sustainable change in New York.

Be Social Change New York focuses on creating diverse and integrated ways to make a difference locally while serving as a launching pad to create meaningful impact globally. Join us to connect, share ideas, and become a catalyst for change with fellow New Yorkers! 

Subscribe to our new monthly Be Social Change New York Digest newsletter to be in the know on the latest happenings within the New York Be Social Change community.
