Passing this announcement along from GiveWell:

GiveWell is holding an event at our offices in San Francisco for Bay Area residents who are interested in Effective Altruism. The evening will be similar to the research events we hold periodically for GiveWell donors: it will include presentations and discussion about GiveWell’s top charity work and the Open Philanthropy Project, as well as a light dinner and time for mingling. We’re tentatively planning to hold the event in the evening of Tuesday July 7th or Wednesday July 8th.

We hope to be able to accommodate everyone who is interested, but may have to limit places depending on demand. If you would be interested in attending, please fill out this form.

We hope to see you there!
