🌱 Welcome Week Event (September 26–October 4)
Friends Beyond Boston is participating in Welcome Week, a national week of invitation created by the U.S. Chamber of Connection to encourage communities to open their doors and welcome someone new.
Every September, communities, neighborhoods, and organizations across the country take part by making meaningful invitations, whether that’s welcoming a new neighbor, reconnecting with a friend, inviting a colleague, or reaching out to someone who may be looking for connection.
To welcome someone is to invite them into belonging.
For this Coffee Social, we’re encouraging members to make a real invitation. It could be someone you’ve never brought to an event before, someone new to the area, someone you’ve been meaning to catch up with, or someone who might appreciate having a friendly face to join them.
As part of Welcome Week, FBB will cover your guest’s first coffee at this event. ☕
(Message us if you're bringing a guest for headcount)
The café’s cozy atmosphere makes it a perfect spot to connect with others, unwind, and start your morning with community.
We’ll get together for friendly conversation and a laid-back morning together. This event is great for anyone looking to meet like-minded people, whether you’re new to the area or just looking to expand your circle. It's a great one if you're looking to get to know the group also with a low-key event.
☕ Please support the café by making a purchase, as we are using their space and their staff is amazing.

⏰ Timing
The event is listed for one hour because that’s the time I can usually commit to as the host, but we almost always stay longer, myself included.
Feel free to join a little later if needed and stay as long as you'd like to chat and connect. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🚗 Parking
The Central Square Parking Deck (a 2-minute walk) is free on Sundays. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
