Our Mission
YNPN Pittsburgh connects young people with resources to foster their development as nonprofit professionals.
Our Vision
Equip emerging nonprofit employees with the skills and resources to become tomorrow’s nonprofit professionals.
Our members are the sector’s future!
The Pittsburgh Chapter of the Young Nonprofit Professionals Network (YNPN Pgh) promotes an efficient, viable and inclusive nonprofit sector that supports the growth, learning, and development of young professionals.
We engage and support future nonprofit and community leaders through professional development, education, networking, and social opportunities designed to assist individuals at all levels within the nonprofit community.
The national program has been in existence since 1997. The Pittsburgh chapter formed in 2009 and is looking for the following:
- Nonprofit employees and volunteers (ages 21 and over) who are new to their occupation or role and are looking for advancement, mentorship, employment, and networking.
- Nonprofit employees and volunteers who have been actively involved in the nonprofit sector and are interested in providing assistance and mentoring.
- College students interested in the nonprofit community for volunteering or as a career path, including those enrolled in nonprofit / social service programs.
Todd Whiteman, our board chair, was recently interviewed for Comcast’s Newsmakers spotlight, to be aired in June 2011:
