The Abundance League is a grassroots collaboration network of social innovators. Local chapter leaders host monthly salons that offer networking, guest speakers, and discussion about social innovation at all scales, from the interpersonal to the global social enterprise.
Gatherings have featured talks about clothing swaps, compassionate communication, poetry slams, storytelling, social entrepreneurship, public media, community gardening, transformational group travel, and more. And we’ve showcased artists, poets and musicians that inspire generosity, collaboration, and service.
The Abundance League embodies the idea that by exercising our social creativity, we can help each other connect to our potential, create lives rich in satisfying experiences, and turn scarcity into abundance. Abundance League is a salon, solutions showcase, and a model for those who share this vision.
Who comes to Abundance League?
All stripes come. Diversity is a key ingredient to abundance because it’s precisely our differences that make us valuable to each other. While diverse, attendees tend to act on a shared insight, that working together for the common good can lead to abundance in all its forms including health, happiness, prosperity, know how, satisfying relationships, and great experiences.
Join us!
Meetings are held once a month. Join our mailing list here if you’d like to get our meeting invitations. Contact a local chapter leader here if you’d like to speak at a meeting.
Start a chapter
Just follow the meeting format or some variation of it described here. What’s important is that everyone who attends gets 1-2 minutes to talk about what’s important to them. We suggest you hold a meeting at least once a month. Speakers help you attract attendees, but you don’t need them to hold a meeting. Start small, be consistent in having meetings, and over time you’ll build a small group of committed attendees. The quality of the connections you make is what’s important, not the size of meetings. If you decide to start a chapter, you’re invited to send neal (at) abundanceleague dot org your name, e-mail, town, and the day of the month you usually host. We’ll put you on our list of local chapters.
