Melbourne Conversations with Strangers in the Park
About:
Imagine the meaningful conversations you have travelling abroad or staying up late with great friends!
Our Conversation events run once a month across the globe, with an aim to turn digital relationships into real-life connections 🙌
Millennial Crisis is a community of like-minded Millennials & Gen Z who are fed up with the idea of how "things are supposed to go". From working a sh*tty corporate 9-5 that is causing you mental distress, watching our "leaders" turn our economy and our environment to sh*t & feeling disconnected from friends and family who don’t understand how you want to live your life.
We believe we can learn so much from strangers and gain new perspectives that get you excited about what's next in life.
We are all about getting outside of your comfort zone and into your stretch zone so push through the awkwardness, self-doubt and fear you may feel leading up to the event, if you have any concerns or questions, we are here to make you feel as comfortable as possible so get in touch @themillennialcrisis on IG or hello@themillennialcrisis.com
About Millennial Crisis:
Millennial Crisis, is a community run & led space, we run on a volunteer basis and host all of our events out of pocket. If you see value in our events and have the means, feel free (but not obliged) to donate to our community. These donations will be used to provide food/drinks for our events, to pay contractors to help us grow and to maintain our website/podcasts etc.
We aim to keep our main events free as we don't believe anybody should have to pay to connect with others, however for us to be sustainable and continue doing what we do. We appreciate anybody who is able to help, but please do not donate if you do not have the means!! This is a space for each of us to help where we can, some of us have the luxury of higher paying jobs and others serve our community in other ways :)
IF YOU’D LIKE TO CONTRIBUTE TO KEEPING OUR EVENTS FREE & HAVE THE MEANS, DONATE BELOW :) Our space is community run & lead meaning everybody who contributes their time is a volunteer. We are self funded and in order to ensure we are sustainable we would appreciate if you had the means to donate or to connect us with businesses/government bodies who may want to sponsor us or give us a grant to continue connecting young people!
