WHAT IS 'NO MORE LONELY FRIENDS?'

---

Marissa Meizz founded No More Lonely Friends in 2021, after a tiktok went viral and she saw the need to make a community for humans to come together and make friends after the past few years of isolation in the world. After over 200+ people came to the first meetup, the community continued to come together in over 30 cities across the WORLD to make the community it is today.

No More Lonely Friends transcends the conventional concept of social gatherings; it's a living, breathing community that continues to evolve and adapt. Marissa's role extends beyond organizing events; she is the architect of a safe space where individuals, alienated by the fragmented nature of modern social interactions, find solace and companionship. This movement is not just about countering loneliness; it's about redefining the very essence of friendship and community in the digital age. The logistical challenges and complexities that accompany the growth of such a movement are indicative of its profound impact and the essential need it fulfills. 

As we navigates considerations around permits, safety, and scaling the movement, the core ethos of No More Lonely Friends remains unchanged – to provide a haven for those seeking genuine human connection. This initiative stands as a beacon of hope, a counter-narrative to the impersonal and transient connections that often characterize our digital existence. In a world where genuine connections are frequently overshadowed by digital facades, the movement shines brightly, reminding us of the enduring power of human connection, empathy, and the relentless pursuit of authentic companionship.
