YNPN Chicago is turning 25 this year and we're excited to celebrate some of Chicago's outstanding nonprofit organizations and leaders, and our 2026 Leadership Institute. Tickets for Celebration 2026 are SOLD OUT.
You can still donate and support YNPN Chicago!
All donations directly support things like the execution of 8+ professional development events per year, give YNPN Chicago the ability to increase funding for the annual Professional Growth Grant and provide scholarships and reduce costs for participants in our Leadership Institute.
