Go up to the 4th floor to enter WeWork and we'll be upstairs (there will be a different event on the main level).

  Apply to be on a Committee
  You may apply to be a general committee member or for a specific chair position. Learn more about the expectations and responsibilities of each committee and open chair positions here. Applications will remain open year-round.

  The Social Networking Committee plans and holds events that are fun and entertaining experiences for members and young professionals in the Twin Cities. Our goal is to create meaningful relationships and foster community between members by providing low to no-cost activities for members to meet, mingle, and create memories. To accomplish these goals, the committee will host a variety of large events like whirly ball, laser tag, or a boat cruise, create an avenue for members to share events they're interested in like concerts, hiking, or an escape room, and a variety of smaller events like YPM exclusive group fitness classes.

  The Professional Development Committee plans and holds events aimed at encouraging, educating, and assisting members in growing their careers. Our goal is to provide meaningful opportunities for members to learn from inspiring leaders in our region, create a space in which to grow professional networks, and assist in making the MSP area one of the best environments for young professionals to establish a career. To accomplish these goals, the committee will host a variety of workshops, talks with community leaders, and other career-oriented events that will prove beneficial to any member determined to advance their career. 

  The Community Service Committee plans engaging volunteer opportunities for our members to get together and help out the community. Our goal is to cultivate a thriving community between our members and the Twin Cities. Last year's events included cleaning up the Greenway, Special Olympics, Feed My Starving Children, and Habitat for Humanity. Help us this year to do more events and become more integrated with the cities.  

  The Membership & Outreach Committee plans new member meetups and welcomes new members. Our goal is to increase membership, create a space for meaningful conversations and engage our diverse community. To accomplish these goals, we will host events that help members feel welcomed and included.

  The Marketing Committee provides promotional assistance for every aspect of the Young Professionals of Minneapolis. We assist other committee’s by providing outreach to members and potential members in the region. Our goal is to create brand awareness for YPM, and encourage young professionals to attend events, grow as leaders, and network with others in the community. Our committee uses social media to focus on individual events, and also looks to attend community events (such as Pride Week events, the Aquatennial, and the Chamber of Commerce) to promote YPM as a whole. Joining this committee would be beneficial to those who want to harness their skills, obtain valuable experience, and advance their career paths.
