Summarize this article in one sentence.
Talk to some of your coworkers during lunch breaks or coffee breaks and see if anyone is interested in helping you get a social committee started. It may be helpful to have a partner to organize the first meeting and stir up interest in the office. If no one volunteers to help, don’t be discouraged. You can still do it on your own and get people excited about a social committee. Ask your manager if you could schedule a quick meeting to talk about starting a social committee. Avoid just putting all the details in an email because your manager may not answer all the questions you have. If they direct you higher up the chain to another manager, schedule a brief meeting with that person instead. Some questions to ask management include whether you can use work hours for meetings, whether the company will offer funds for the committee to use, and what types of events management is comfortable with you planning. If a manager gives you the go-ahead to get started, send an email to your human resources department to let them know about your plan. Ask if they have any special forms you need to fill out or a list of rules and regulations for workplace committees. Inquire about how to expense purchases made by the committee if your company is offering to reimburse you.

Summary:
Find a partner to help get things off the ground. Schedule a time to talk to management. Contact Human Resources for final approval.
