What Happened Last Week

An amazing evening with UN diplomats🌍✨! A big shoutout to our wonderful cohosts: Berenice Low and Phone Ko for bringing everyone together and creating a relaxed atmosphere that allowed diplomats to connect across countries and committees! Excited for more to come!

We had so much fun over Memorial weekend! We fired up the grill at Central Park (60 people attended!), embarked on an exhilarating hike to Palisades Park, and relished a lazy Sunday picnic. The foodie adventures didn't stop there: from a feast at a Singaporean restaurant to an insightful Product Manager brunch, our momo friends never fail to connect over food and new friends. Cheers to all the laughter, good food, and even better company!
