New Jersey Gathering Groups
In the Garden State, The Ethel Gathering Groups are helping older women grow strong friendships rooted in real-life connections. These private Facebook groups bring together women 60+ to organize local events—whether it’s a coffee catch-up, an art class, or a relaxing walk. It’s a warm, welcoming way to meet people who understand where you are in life and want to celebrate it with you.
