New Fundraising Opportunity!

Hey y’all! So GoFundMe bought out YouCare and our original fundraising campaign was dissolved. But we’ve started another one! Check out our new campaign and please do donate! Instead of asking for the whole kit and caboodle up front, all we are asking for is enough to fund our 501c3 fees, some general maintenance fees, and our first library package!

New Meet-Up!

Yo! We’ve scheduled another meet-up at the Barnes and Noble in Rittenhouse Square! We’re falling back into feminist mode with this one, as we’re discussing Sartre’s rather presumptuous tone in his treatment of “bad faith.” Spread the word! Join the fun!

 

The Art of Exclusion: How Sartre’s Treatment of Bad Faith is Bad Philosophy

In his Existentialism, Sartre advocates for authenticity – for recognizing that one’s present self is not determined by one’s past behavior or some innate personality qualities; that we choose to perpetuate how it is we exist in relation to, and how it is we create with, our surroundings. To cover over this truth and exist under the pretense that “…

Updates!

As part of our ongoing maturation, we have cleaned up the service and axiom pages. We’re gettin’ lean and losing that baby fat; gaining muscle and working out our plan. We’re more precise, but just as nice – stay tuned for more to come!

And It Begins!

We’re super excited to announce that we’ve begun what we hope to be beautiful partnerships with the Bethesda Project and the Youth Emergency Services (YES!) here in Philly. We’ll begin teaching classes at YES! on July 9th, and at a Bethesda Project location to be determined on the 27th! We’ll keep you posted on how those events go and grow, so stayed tuned!!

Of course, we continue to ask for your support. We will need money for teaching supplies, and we still need to raise money to submit our 501(c)3 form. Once approved, we’ll have official tax exemption status which will allow us to apply for the grants we need to pay for teaching supplies and library packages. Please donate today!

Fact or Fiction: Fractal Diction

We’ve scheduled another meet-up! We’ll be taking a closer look at what we see everyday: the patterns of our interrelations between ourselves and our natural environment. What do our patterns of existence reveal about the depths of meaning constituting human experience? What do they cover over? We’ll be revolving around our good friend Nietzsche, again (because he’s just so darn fun!) but the conversation will flow as it may, so don’t be turned off if Nietzsche seems unapproachable! Hope to see y’all there!

Patterns surround us daily: routines, habits, even our use of language. But what are those patterns conveying to us? What do we see whenever we take a closer look at what we see everyday? In this meet-up we will discuss how it is our norms and regulations both reveal and cover over the depths of meaning constituting human experience. We shall retur…
