BEAN Around the World 2009

Page 2: Bean Around The World   2009

BEAN was started in Seattle, WA, USA in 2002 as a casual young professional networking & volunteering group.

Page 3: Bean Around The World   2009

We quickly grew to be over 5,000 members in Seattle with dozens of events annually, thousands of volunteering hours donated, thousands of dollars raised for charitable organizations, and countless number of friendships created.

Page 4: Bean Around The World   2009

Then, at the end of 2008, we had a crazy idea:

“Can we get young professionals around the globe to network and volunteer?”

Page 5: Bean Around The World   2009

So, why are we doing all this?

Page 6: Bean Around The World   2009

BEAN is a young professional civic group. We are unconventional, humble, ambitious, smart, youthful and inclusive. We engage

with each other and the local communities throughsocial, networking and volunteering events.

BEAN is a vehicle for fun memories andpersonal growth, and we

encourage healthiercommunities and global

collaboration.

BEAN @ Phoenix2009 Highlight: Our most successful service event was our August event at The Family School. At this event, we spent the morning cleaning up and a school playground and making sure the safety measures were up to code. The organizers at The Family School were ready for us with the tools we needed in order to complete the work. We were able to finish in approx. 3 hours. Even though it was ridiculously hot, we all felt a great sense of accomplishment when we finished.

BEAN @ Seattle2009 Highlight: We had a record-breaking TGAL fundraising campaign. The singles date auction and silent auction raised over $14,000 in one night making it the most profitable fundraiser and social event in BEAN’s history. Our Scholarship Program continues to reach out into our local Seattle community, fostering and supporting our young leaders. The $2,500 scholarship is specifically for students who exemplify service, friendship and leadership – the three core principles of BEAN. Our 1st Annual Pink Slip party in January 2009, which was our best networking event of the year. As the economy showed no signs of recovery, approximately 10% of BEAN members were unemployed and looking for ways to connect with others in city. This was the perfect opportunity to reach out, bring our members together and provide opportunities in our network.

BEAN @ Shanghai 上海2009 Highlight: The first Dental Hygiene Education event, where we managed 600 children and 90 volunteers, was the most amazing experience anyone I talk to from BEAN has ever had at a BEAN event. We didn’t know if we could pull it off, if we would get enough volunteers, what the students would be like- but it was great! There were problems, but for the first event to launch a comprehensive health program- it went extremely well! Our first anniversary had three live bands, four bars, and was extensively covered by the media. People had an AMAZING time! July and August each netted 120 attendees. The feedback we’ve gotten is that people like coming to free networking events, a rarity in Shanghai. We’ve started having a three-minute talk during each networking event to highlight an upcoming event or program and the crowd responds extremely well to this.
