Based in Sydney? Keen to meet some great people, while having meaningful conversations and supporting good causes?

Introducing Good Talk – a brand new brunch and dinner club series by Humans For Good. We're a diverse community of Aussies who want to turn their good intentions into impact, and do their part to make the world a better place.

This particular dinner is mental health themed, and for anyone who is curious about, or working in, this space. It is in partnership with Kyiv Social by Plate It Forward – a restaurant that provides employment opportunities for newly arrived Ukranian refugees.

What is Good Talk?

Good Talk brunches and dinners offer more than a meal. They are a chance to get to know a small group of other people who care about social impact, while directly supporting the work of a local social enterprise.

This looks like –

Good food: Share a meal at a local social enterprise cafe or restaurant that matches your interests and budget (see all upcoming dinners & brunches here)
Good causes: Have candid, authentic conversations about big issues like mental health, while funding employment opportunities and meals for people who need them
Good humans: Connect with new, purpose-driven friends and people to collaborate with, in a casual and relaxed space – versus the classic office or networking environment

What's included in your $20 ticket?

A seat at the table with new connections and meaningful conversation with a small, curated group of good humans in your city
Two meals that are donated to families facing hunger in conflict zones, such as Gaza, through the UN World Food Programme
Support for your host from Humans For Good, who makes the event possible and is there to guide the night
A Whatsapp group chat before and after the event to stay connected
Humans For Good operational costs, so that we can sustain these events and have the biggest collective impact possible

What’s not included?

Food and drinks – a set menu is an additional $47.20, which you’ll order and pay for your directly at the venue. Entrees (pickles, beetroot borscht and potato dumplings), mains (chicken or eggplant kyiv, green salad, garlic butter mash) and dessert (cherry dumplings). This price includes two additional meals that are donated to people who need them in Australia and Ukraine via Plate It Forward 🇺🇦

FAQS

Why organise brunches and dinners?

Humans For Good events (like Good Talk) bring together likeminded people in the way we have for thousands of years – around a shared meal. They're here to provide casual, inclusive and cosy spaces to explore different global issues and their solutions. We want to cultivate meaningful connections, dialogue, collaboration and shared impact. Join us to get to know, listen to and learn from a group of diverse and passionate change-makers.

Who is Good Talk for?

Our community is for people of all ages, backgrounds and occupations. Whether you're actively working in the social impact space, or curious about how you can make more of a difference in our local and global community, you're welcome to join us.

What do I do if I can’t make it anymore?

There are only up to ten spots at the table, so every person plays an important role during Good Talk.

If you're no longer able to make it, we're only able to offer refunds up to 7 days before the dinner so that we can find someone to replace you – otherwise you’re more than welcome to transfer your ticket to a friend!
