PROFESSIONAL GROWTH GRANT OPPORTUNITY!
YNPN Chicago proudly provides many affordable programs and events to our members and network. We recognize there are many other opportunities for young professionals to further their careers within Chicago’s nonprofit sector. Most nonprofit organizations have limited professional development budgets, and emerging leaders may not have access to funds for training, conferences, and other opportunities that are vital to career advancement. YNPN Chicago is offering a grant opportunity for individuals who are committed to enhancing their professional development to make a positive impact within the Chicago non-profit community.
CELEBRATION 2026!
We are thrilled to celebrate the 25th anniversary of YNPN Chicago at our annual fundraiser, Celebration 2026, on Wednesday August 5th, 2026.
Join us for an evening of recognition of our nonprofit colleagues and to celebrate the good work being done in our sector and city.
Tickets go on sale May 1st!​​​​​
The Support For Emerging Nonprofit Leaders Is Still Needed
Your gift, whether it’s $10, $15, or $35—the average cost of a YNPN Chicago program—helps us reach our goal and continue providing quality professional development and networking opportunities for leaders like you.
We help emerging leaders with programs all year long. Young professionals benefit from free and low-cost professional development every month.
