WISE Seattle Coffee Connect

At WISE Seattle, we believe leadership isn’t just about us—it’s about the communities we uplift. That’s why we’re launching WISE Seattle Coffee Connect, a new quarterly member perk designed to spark authentic dialogue in the most welcoming of places: local, small-business coffee shops.

Coffee Connect is your chance to gather with WISE Seattle Board members in a small, informal setting. We’ll start with a light theme, but the conversation is open—whether it’s sharing stories, asking questions, or simply connecting. It’s about support, dialogue, and the kind of relationships that strengthen our community.

For our inaugural gathering, we’ll be meeting at Blend Coffee & Kicks in Seattle—a one-of-a-kind community spot that blends coffee culture with sneaker culture. Blend isn’t a hype store; it’s a welcoming sneaker shop for everyone—from lifelong collectors to people buying their first pair of Jordans. Even better, every purchase makes a difference: a portion of shoe sales supports MHIO (Mental Health Is Optional), a local nonprofit using art therapy to combat isolation, and teen homeless initiatives across Washington.

• Small & Intentional → Just 12 members per session to keep conversations intimate and engaging.
• Board Access → Get to know WISE Seattle Board members in a casual, open setting.
• Community First → Each Coffee Connect highlights a local small business—because leadership extends to the communities we support.
• Quarterly Series → Can’t make this one? Stay tuned—Coffee Connect will return each quarter.

• Free for WISE Seattle Members (member perk).
• Space is limited: up to 12 spots—first come, first served.
• Cancellation courtesy: We know life happens! If you’re unable to attend, please cancel your spot at least 48 hours in advance so that another member can join.
• Waitlist available: If the event fills, add your name to the waitlist. We’ll give you the heads-up if a spot opens! You’ll have 24 hours to jump in (12 hours if within 48 hours of the event)

Reserve your seat, sip some coffee, and connect with your WISE community.
