January 22nd
...See more In our ongoing efforts to coordinate activities across the community and raise awareness for all the exciting things we’ve got going on, I have drafted us an Events Calendar [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yZzlHDt-vqQ7p_EDxTALY1x9Divq1s35zmEdS6PLNBE/edit#gid=1811547765]! This calendar will consist of: Content! Monthly themed events, planned by each community. Relevant holiday/special date themed forum posts Community Challenges (ex. SoulfullyAButterfly’s Wellness Accountability Challenge) [https://www.7cups.com/forum/community/WellbeingAccountabilityChallenge_2654/NewYearAccountabilityChallengeBoostYourGoalAchievementby90_321014/] Special sessions and awareness discussions Note: regularly scheduled group/chatroom events can be found on the on-site Community Calendar [https://www.7cups.com/forum/communityCalendar.php] If you're a community leader, please contact CheeryMango or Tommy about submitting events. Project Awareness! Events and forum posts to raise awareness for our many programs across all the domains that serve the community (Groups, Listener Rooms, Forums/Communities, Academy, Quality, Safety, etc.) AMAs and learning events/activities Ongoing and planned initiatives to promote teams such as Spotlight Weeks If you're a team member wanting to spread awareness and boost the visibility of your program by organizing events, be it in forums or groups, get in touch with your lead. We'll continue to build this out, but I hope this helps keep everyone in the loop and encourages planning ahead! If you notice anything in need of updating or have suggestions for optimization, let me know.
Help us clean up the forums!

...See more Our forums are a melting pot of our community’s collective knowledge and creativity. It’s become an invaluable resource for information sharing and community building. However, over time, outdated links and broken resources can impede discoverability. Our process for addressing this at present is, if you notice anything like this, to submit the post via a form (more info on this here [https://www.7cups.com/forum/7cupsleadership/CommunitiesInformation_2314/NeedtocontactaforumleaderFindouthowhere_315542/]) for our forum leaders to see to it that the post is edited and/or updated. My post here serves to amplify its visibility and make an ask of you all to please support us with this by raising any outdated or irrelevant content via the form [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSePF0i2FXJndT8X0SlZAzqaTawHaBvc_H8yUGeoH4chbm5tPg/viewform]. Things you may notice worth escalating for review: Outdated or broken links to posts, external docs and sheets (google) Formatting issues (those posts with weird symbols/text from old bugs) Typically a lot of outdated resources surface in communities like Group Support, 7 Cups Leadership, Community Projects & Events, Listener Learning and Journey, and Safety and Knowledge And as extra incentive, ✨ cheers ✨ will be awarded for submissions as thanks for your time! Contact @Tommy or @CheeryMango with any questions.

7 Cups Birthday Mad Lib Mayhem
by CommunityModIris
Last post
July 19th
...See more Happy Birthday 7 Cups! What better way to celebrate than with some party games? If you like mad libs, you’ll love these. Courtesy of our members and listeners here are some 7 Cups Birthday themed mad lib stories. Hopefully you’ll get a chance to join in and create more laughs! *All stories herein are works of fiction and meant only to give a few laughs* Some of our listeners shared their creative blank filling to create these: O purple Cups, how I love thee! Let me count the ways. Your listeners are as kind as a flowery castle. Your chatrooms as generous as a determined Wales. Your forums a book that can run a person’s head. And your members are truly amazing children! As a community we think to help each other, that makes us a wide team! So today we celebrate you 7 Cups, a truly peculiar bench! Hello 7 Cups! Happy Birthday to the most sparkly and joyful website in the whole wide tree! I hope all of your ornaments will be realized on this most whimsical day. We all celebrate how funky red and practical an organization you are. To us you are more than just a suspiciously smart present, you’re like our twelfth home! We are all swimmingly and silently looking forward to the virtual lively peach ice cream and cookies at the party, and hope there is lots of milk. So today, as we celebrate your 11th year, we wish you 25 times more! Glen loves to tell the clumsy story of the day 7 Cups was launched. He says it was the most exciting day! “It was huzzah!!” While the original idea started off fussy, seeing the result made him slide with hope! As the site majestically loaded, and the bendy homepage displayed, it was like 7 Cups now had a Stonehenge of its own. He envisioned how 7 cups would help 21 people, maybe even more! He clicked ‘create account’ and was given superbLlama8 as a suggested username, but decided to use supercalifragilisticexpialidocious instead! These are courtesy of some of our teens members: O silly Cups, how I love thee! Let me count the ways. Your listeners are as kind as a dark Cleopatra. Your chatrooms, as stolen as a silky West Pole school. Your forums a sponge that can ski a person’s head, finger and tonsil. And your members are truly amazing cats and slippers! As a community we eat to help each other, that makes us a chewy team! So today we celebrate you 7 Cups, a truly greenish chunky pasta! Congratulations 7 Cups! Happy Birthday to the most playful website in the whole wide chihuahua! I hope all of your hippopotami will be realized on this most goofy day. We all celebrate how dark, curly and sleepy an organization you are. To us you are more than just a purple cup, you’re like our thirteenth from last home! We are all heroically and speedily looking forward to the virtual cabbage, falafel and caviar at the party, and hope there is lots of slimy soft water. So today, as we celebrate your 11th year, we wish you 1003 times more! Glen loves to tell the dizzy story of the day 7 Cups was launched. He says it was the most hyper day! “It was cool!” While the original idea started off frozen, seeing the result made him bunny run with confusion! As the site shakily loaded, and the neon yellow homepage displayed, it was like 7 Cups now had an Iris of its own. He envisioned how 7 cups would help 511 people, maybe even more! He clicked ‘create account’ and was given crispyChopsticks13 as a suggested username, but decided to use dinglehopper instead!    …more laughs to come!!!

10 Years of 7 Cups and Remembering and Celebrating our Leaders From the Past.
by LovingPeacefulHeart
Last post
April 10th
...See more Hello Community! <3 The 10th anniversary of anything is worth celebrating for that entire year. So why not with 7 Cups?! Over the last decade, 7 Cups of Tea has seen many wonderful and compassionate leaders. Many of the lovely people are no longer active in the community. This can be for a variety of reasons. It is always sad when people who we have grown to love and appreciate drift away from our lives. I would like to invite the entire 7 Cups Community take a moment to remember a leader (member or listener) and mention them in the comments below. If they still have a profile, you may feel free to tag them. :) Let's let them know they are not forgotten and that we still appreciate them! :) <3 I will start us off: @Gracey @DeborahUK @Jill7Cups Tagging: @InternalAcceptance @EmotionsListener @amiablepeace77 @SunShineAlwaysGrateful @SunIsShingingAndSoAreYou @Fristo @GlenM @YellowSunflower101 @BronyDice @CheeryMango @Heather225 @RumpleSteeleSkin @ASilentObserver @SoulfullyAButterfly
