April Green Drinks - Diversity and the Environment

Please join us Tuesday, April 6th at 7pm for the next Green Drinks event featuring Marcelo Bonta from the Center for Diversity and the Environment.

Marcelo will briefly discuss the need and the opportunity to begin comprehensively diversifying environmental institutions (as well as what is at stake if we do not), and how the Center for Diversity & the Environment is working to create an inclusive, successful, and relevant environmental movement that is truly for all.

Time: Doors open at 6:30pm, the speakers starts promptly at 7:00. Announcements will follow the speakers and networking will continue until 8:45.

Donation: We ask that you donate $5 to help us cover our costs. All attendees will be entered into a raffle to win a gift certificate for two coaching sessions at True Living Synergy Coaching.

Food / Drinks: Hot Lips will be selling beer and wine upstairs so you can more easily experience the "drinks" portion of "Green Drinks." You'll still need to go downstairs for any food but are welcome to bring it upstairs.

Discussion Groups: During the networking after the speaker, we will have 4 topics for discussion in the four corners of the room. The rest of the room will be free-form networking/socializing.

March Green Drinks is sponsored by True Living Synergy Coaching.
