About

In our early career journeys, we often walk parallel paths—living in the same cities, working at the same companies, navigating the same questions—without ever truly meeting. But the thing is, we’re all figuring it out, side by side. So why not meet now? Why not grow together?Homeroom was born from the belief that friendship comes first. That when curious, ambitious, open-hearted people find each other, everything else—collaboration, ideas, support—naturally follows.We’re not here to reinvent anything. We’re just here to make this chapter of life feel a little more connected. A little more celebratory. A little more human.Homeroom is a space to meet new people, grow alongside them, and make the kind of memories that stay with you long after summer ends.Cheers,
the Homeroom team

Launch event @ pixlcat coffee

We recreated the excitement of our “first day of school”, by reimagining it for our intern era. we invited interns & early career friends from all across the bay area to share all of their excitement and nerves of starting a new era in a new city.What started out as a 50-person Partiful invite quickly turned into a 200-person event filling up the sunny pixlcat coffee.

Picnic Social @ Alamo Square Park

Just one week after our Launch Event at Pixlcat Coffee, the DMs started rolling in: When’s the next event?So we pulled together an impromptu picnic — the most requested idea by new SF arrivals.On a sunny afternoon at Alamo Square Park, over 70 interns showed up — easily the largest group on the grass, surrounded by families, dogs, and solo readers. Members came with snacks, sandwiches, drinks, and good vibes to share with new friends.

It was about time to bring the Homeroom energy down south. Hosted by Homeroom member, Savar, our first-ever South Bay meetup invited interns from Palo Alto, Mountain View, Sunnyvale, San Jose, and beyond to connect over boba and sunshine.We kicked things off at UMe Tea in downtown Mountain View then made our way over to Pioneer Memorial Park for a chill afternoon.
