Net Impact - Oakland Mixer at Alkali Rye

Join us for an intimate evening of connection and conversation with professionals passionate about social and environmental impact in the San Francisco Bay Area. Whether you're working directly in the impact space or simply inspired by it, this gathering is an opportunity to meet others who care about driving meaningful change.

This time, we’re excited to host our mixer at Alkali Rye, a unique specialty beverage shop known for spotlighting minority-, queer-, and women-led producers. We’ll be gathering on the second floor for a relaxed and welcoming evening.

Throughout the night, Alkali Rye will be selling wines by the glass, and a few makers from their network will be on hand to share their stories and perspectives, offering a more personal connection to the people and values behind what’s in your glass.

What to expect:

• Networking with Bay Area impact-driven professionals

• A casual, welcoming space to build meaningful connections

• Opportunities to hear directly from Alkali Rye's co-founder and featured beverage makers

• Wines by the glass for purchase and other beverage samples from select makers

Feel free to invite friends or colleagues who share an interest in social and environmental impact - the more the merrier!

This event is free and is organized by the local chapter of the global Net Impact network, dedicated to empowering professionals to use their careers for positive change.

We look forward to seeing you there!
