GiveGlobal Adelaide: Drinks + Social + Shortlisting
Description
Most of us want to help. The hard part is knowing what works.
Come along to GiveGlobal Adelaide: Drinks, Discussion + Shortlisting Vote — a relaxed social event for people who want to learn about effective giving, discuss high-impact charities, and meet thoughtful locals. No commitment needed.
We’ll talk about how GiveGlobal works, why some charities can do far more good per dollar than others, and how we can make giving less guesswork and more grounded.
This will also be our first round of shortlisting for the final giving vote. Attendees will each receive 5 counters to place across the charities they’d most like to see make the shortlist.
So whether you’re just curious, a bit skeptical, or already interested in better giving, this is a simple way to take part.
Anyone is welcome. No prior knowledge needed. No donating on the night. Bring a friend.
The first 25 registered attendees will receive one complimentary drink on arrival, covered personally by GiveGlobal volunteers.
We’ll share the updated shortlist on social media after the event.
Register here so we can manage numbers.
