Meetup : [New York] Effective Altruism (Outdoor!) Dinner Discussion

Do you want to save the world? Do you want to mildly contribute to improving the world with your spare time or other resources and just want that mild contribution to be as effective as possible? Do you enjoy cookouts and potluck dinner discussions?

If any of the above are true (and you also happen to be living in or passing through NYC) you should come down to the Effective Altruism dinner party this Saturday.

The evening will be an informal potluck barbecue, where people can share past success stories and lessons learned, and talk about projects to collaborate on. Newcomers who are interested in the idea and trying to figure out how to go about having an impact can get familiar with some of the ideas behind the Effective Altruism community.

Discussion will be open-ended, but with some emphasis on startups, political action and other non-charity avenues for world-improvement.
