SF Welly Combined End of Year Gathering - Wed Nov 20th

Join us for our famous annual SF Welly mega combined Community year end meeting....to review 2024 & hear Salesforce news, participate in some fun activities including a play with GenAI, network, win swag and of course, pay it forward to Wellington City Mission.

We have a large venue with space to welcome many of our #SFWelly whānau, so we have capacity for plenty to attend (but you do need to register please). 

Get ready to meet in person, acknowledging another challenging year for Salesforce and the Wellington community. This will be our last in-person event for 2024.  Come and join us as we wind down to the festive season. We are so lucky that we can meet in person. All are welcome - but please ensure you register to ensure the catering can cope. There will be a CASH BAR operating once the bar tab limit is reached! Platter nibbles will be served at approx 6pm. 

We are expecting a large crowd and we have exclusive use of Foxglove's beautiful and spacious Ballroom function space to ourselves.

Check out the agenda for the approximate timings of the activities, Salesforce updates, speeches, and nibbles. Timings are approximate and the agenda may be updated as we confirm sponsorship details.

All announcements / Salesforce updates covered at the event will also be summarised in our annual group newsletter which will be sent out in December.

PAY IT FORWARD

Our chosen charity for this event will be Wellington City Mission, and this year they need our help and support. You are encouraged to support the City Mission by bringing along a donation - this can be cash, a Christmas gift suitable for a child, vouchers or grocery items. All items will be gratefully accepted and will be passed on to the City Mission as soon as possible. We will also be circulating a QR Code with a direct link to digital donation, at the event, so no worries if you've come without cash :)
