WHAT IS IT

Learn About Hobby Groups

Hobby Groups bring together people with shared passions—whether it’s hiking, mountain biking, painting, or cooking. Each gathering offers a chance to learn new skills, find inspiration, and bond with fellow enthusiasts. These activities have been shown to reduce stress, improve mental health, and inspire personal growth.

After each activity, participants often share their experiences and reflections, helping strengthen community bonds and encourage personal fulfillment. Whether you’re a beginner or seasoned expert, Hobby Groups create a supportive environment that can lead to long-lasting friendships and a greater sense of well-being.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?

Hobby Groups are, and will always be free.

Hobby Group gatherings are led by volunteer organizers across different locations worldwide, and participation is offered at no cost.

  • Attendees are welcome to donate to the foundation if they wish, but no fees are ever requested or required.
  • Organizers receive the necessary support to host their events, which may include access to equipment or space rentals (up to $30 per session).
  • We welcome volunteer organizers from all backgrounds. If you have a history of addiction or substance misuse, we ask for a minimum of three months of sobriety before hosting a Hobby Group. If you experience a relapse or need to step back for any reason, please reach out for support and alternative hosting arrangements.
