We’re building the central dashboard for community connection. Free, curated, and made for everyone.
Social Connectory is a central “dashboard” of social clubs (from potluck groups to knitting circles to sports groups of all kinds), orgs that need volunteers (food banks to neighborhood groups), event calendars linked from local publications, links to local makers, and more.
Nothing like Social Connectory currently exists. Sure there are lists of social clubs that some news outlets put out there but as soon as that list is published it can become outdated. Social Connectory lists will be actively managed—The directory will be checked on a frequent basis for anything that is no longer active or has been closed down.
In addition, users may submit suggestions of groups or orgs to add to the list through a submission form. We have done our best to compile the most comprehensive list to connect you to others with shared interests and hobbies and a place to highlight great organizations for you to get involved with. The directory will be an ongoing work in progress and will grow over time.
Social Connectory will be easy to search. All things listed will be categorized and easy to find. Some of these groups are hard to find on social media. Some are good at using hashtags and some are not. Some folks find the internet easy to search and some do not.
No. While MeetUp is a good platform when social groups post their events and want to manage membership, not all social clubs bother with posting on MeetUp.
There is cost associated with using that platform and group leaders have to manage the activity—event sign ups, wait lists, calendars, etc. Many social clubs don’t have the time or the inclination for all that.
Sometimes the club just wants to post on social media to increase awareness and let folks know what they’re about and when they meet. Many of these small social clubs don’t even host their own website.
Social Connectory is FREE! We are striving to make a difference, not a profit. It is absolutely free to have your group or org listed and it’s free to search the directory.
Social Connectory is for ANYONE and EVERYONE (any age group) who is:
