June Cohort Events!
Heya social soldiers and future soldiers!
June is pride month and we have come together to give you a fun filled month full of events to participate in!
Our continuous event this month as always is the Bingo!
You will get a copy of the bingo once you join the team, It combines Reach-Out tasks and a 7-Day Challenge for you to complete. We are using this as a way to track work, everyone's goal is to get two rows of Bingo! Remember every row is 100 cheers, and completing your goal for one-month grants you the social soldiers' badge and for 3 months the social butterfly badge! Doing 3 extra tasks alongside your bingo grants you the All in One Badge, and 10 cheers per extra task.
This month we are continuing the 7 Day challenge. Since it is Pride month, we've added a 7 Day Pride Challenge to the Bingo and we still have the Reach out challenge too!
7 Day Challenge;
We have set a challenge for you to complete in a 7 day period, you can do this on any days as long as you do each task on a different day! Each day has a different thing for you to post and here are the days. The first step is to choose one thing within the LGBTQ+ spectrum.
Day 1 ~ Pick and Define it #7cupsSS #PrideMonth
Day 2 ~ Myth vs Fact #7cupsSS #PrideMonth
Day 3 ~ Post an infographic #7cupsSS #PrideMonth
Day 4 ~ Share your stories, experiences, struggles (how it affects lives) #7cupsSS #PrideMonth
Day 5 ~ Share an inspiring quote about it. #7cupsSS
Day 6 ~ One way to support them #7cupsSS
Day 7 ~ Resources! #7cupsSS
Reach out Challenge;
On the Bingo you will see a task that says;
'Pick a number from 1 - 10, find your number in the events post and reach out to that hashtag and add a resource' Your resource can be any forum post or therapist Advice blog post or subforum link.
Choose a different number each time and reach out to the hashtags given for that number, some will have more than one hashtag, in that case, choosing the one you prefer.

@Yendi i didnt get to complete bingo when i was in the april cohort ended up on long break
@CaringBrit That's okay! We encourage you to reapply for June if this still interests you, thank you!
How come the LGBTQ+ subcom isn't involved with the pride events at all?
@Kanga
Hey Kanga!
We don't normally collaborate with subcommunties when it comes onto events. However, we do have Twitter/Tumblr posts where we have those on the team share, tweet of the week, like the one today (as an example) and any other events surrounding it and/or have done Twitter Takeovers surrounding what awareness month it is. In this case, since it's Pride Month, we could try to have something around that! If you have any suggestions you can let myself, @ArwaS or @Erato know. Also, everyone on the team is free to share any posts of any discussions, forum posts etc that others can participate within the LGBTQ+ subcommunity within this month! You can find that the 7Cups Twitter page does that often as well.
@Kanga
That's a good question. You'd think they would be the first ones on the list.
