Associating EA publicly with pickup is likely not good for the EA brand.
I however could imagine a weekend EA event that about doing shared street fundraising and at the same time comfort zone expansion and package it as a personal growth workshop.
On top of my hand I can think of one person who lives in London who I imaging has both the skills to lead such a workshop, who would benefit from doing such a project and who I know well. She's also female with reduces possible risk for the EA brand.
If it's worth saying, but not worth its own post (even in Discussion), then it goes here.
