LinkedIn Local Baltimore Unity for Ukraine
Join us on Wednesday, May 18 at Bondhouse Kitchen for our first #LinkedInLocalBaltimore event of 2022…
About LinkedIn Local
#LinkedInLocal is a meetup concept in over 800 cities world wide. It was created with the purpose to unite people from all walks of life, in one facilitated event, to genuinely get to know the humans behind the LinkedIn profiles, and connect beyond the job titles, business cards and company names. These events are curated to bring our tribes together and remind ourselves why it’s important to connect out of the digital world. How our job titles, degrees and backgrounds are just a fraction of who we are and that we have the capacity to be more and to do more when surrounded by the right people.
What to Expect at This Event
Over the last few months we have watched the tragic and unprovoked attacks unfold in Ukraine. This is a heartbreaking humanitarian crisis that affects not only the people of Ukraine but many around the world. Join us for an evening of food, drink, music and community as we fundraise for our friends in Ukraine. All ticket proceeds for this event will benefit several Ukrainian families and troops with unique needs ranging from clothing to communications devices and other supplementary gear. Bondhouse Kitchen is donating 20% of food and beverage sales during the event so come hungry and thirsty! Suggested attire is BLUE and YELLOW, we encourage you to support our brothers and sisters in Ukraine by wearing these colors proudly.
This is an indoor/outdoor event. If you are experiencing cold, flu or Covid symptoms, stay home.
LIMITED TICKETS AVAILABLE. NO DOOR SALES.
