Every event is free to attend with advance registration, and food and drinks are available for purchase (snacks and sips for parents while the kids get crafty!).
These events are a perfect mix of local love, hands-on creativity, and quality time.

About Reach Out WorldWide
Reach Out WorldWide (ROWW) was founded in 2010 by the late actor/producer, Paul Walker. After a massive earthquake devastated Haiti, Paul spontaneously organized a relief team that responded to the disaster. On the trip, Paul saw a gap between the availability of skilled resources and the requirement for such personnel in post-disaster situations. Upon returning from Haiti, Paul established ROWW with the purpose of fulfilling this unmet need. Since Paul’s passing, ROWW continues to be a platform for like-minded individuals to make a difference in other people’s lives. It started as an idea and has transformed into a culture equally benefiting the volunteers as much as the people they are assisting. It’s turning the “I generation” into a “goodwill generation.” It’s giving good people not just a voice but a chance to act.

Parents Night • film screening & conversations : on Raising Our Kids
2025-07-28 18:00 - 20:30 | Homebrew Club, 1481 Folsom St, San Francisco, 94103
OK, we’ve got you the perfect excuse to step out of your hustling parenting x working life.
To pause. To think. And to meet other like-minded parents.
Come meet us for a film screening followed by a get-together (and food and drinks, too!)
The topic? Raising Our Kids.
Time: 6:30 PM-8:30pm (Doors open at 6:00pm)
Where: Homebrew Club1481 Folsom St, San Francisco, CA 94103, United States
Why SEEN? As a friend put it, after she watched the film “it moved me, as a parent, you just have to watch it, trust me.” I did so. And yes, it was altogether: uncomfortable, moving, vulnerable, hopeful. This friend happened to know Sam Jockel quite well – the producer and founder of ParentTV. Here we are, bringing the show from Australia to San Francisco, and I couldn’t be more excited!
What is SEEN? Seen is a transformative documentary that reveals how we cannot truly see our children until we’ve done the work of seeing ourselves. The film explores how healing our emotional wounds can transform not only our own lives but also the lives of our children. Offering tools to break generational patterns and build deeper connections, Seen invites viewers to spark the healing journey and create healthier, more compassionate families. Definitely a thought-provoking film and a perfect discussion starter! Make sure to watch the trailer 👆
I am Mathilde, the mom of two children aged 4 and 6 y/o, and I am thrilled to host this empowering documentary for the thoughtful parents here in San Francisco! 👋
I am the founder of NewKid, a podcast and newsletter exploring at the intersection of parenting, education and AI. This screening sesh is the perfect excuse to step out of your crazy hustling parenting x working life, to pause. To think about the bigger picture. And to share experiences with other like-minded parents.
I can’t wait to meet you all and get the discussion started!
This special event includes:
✨ 6:30PM to 7:45PM a screening of SEEN: The Film
✨ 7:45PM to 8:30PM thoughtful, casual conversations around soft drinks and finger foods (included in the price)
Tickets: Grab your ticket now – spaces are limited!

Agents of Discovery: Mission in Santa Clara County
2025-08-01 | CA
Ready for a Screen Time Win? Bay Area Families Invited to Explore Nature—Through Augmented Reality!
Free AR Game Gets Kids Off the Couch and Into Local Parks, Transit Stations, and Museums
Tired of seeing your kids glued to screens all summer? The Bay Area Explorer Campaign is here to help—and yes, it still uses a screen. But this time, it’s getting your family outside, moving, and learning together.
From August 1 to September 7, 2025, dozens of local parks and public spaces across the Bay Area are turning into interactive learning zones—like Pokémon Go, but with an educational twist! The free Agents of Discovery® app offers fun “Missions” that encourage kids to explore topics like wildlife, science, history, and transportation—right in their own backyard.
Participating spots include:
U.S. Fish and Wildlife – Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge
Santa Clara County Parks
Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART)
City of San Jose,
City of Morgan Hill
City of San Carlos
Sacramento County Regional Parks
California State Parks – Seacliff State Beach
Oakland International Airport
National Park Service at San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park.
“This is a great way to engage families in nature if they enjoy using technology. Much healthier than playing video games at home!” said one Agents of Discovery user.
And here’s the bonus: every Mission your child completes enters them in a prize draw—the more they play, the better their chances!
How to Play:
Download the Agents of Discovery app (free!)
Search for Missions near you and download them before you go
Head out and start exploring—no internet or data required!
Whether you’re hopping on BART, headed to the beach, or visiting your local park, there’s a Mission waiting. It’s a win for physical activity, a win for learning, and a win for family bonding.
Santa Clara County Parks and Recreation Staff say, “We are excited to be able to allow our visitors a new and different way to engage with and explore our parks using Agents of Discovery. Park visitors have really had fun with the AR components of the app.”
