ABOUT ABOUT

Join YIP to kick off the 5th annual State of Young Philly at its annual Civic Engagement Fair where you will meet and greet more than 30 organizations representing the most innovative non-profit, governmental and advocacy groups in Philadelphia.  This event will:

  • Connect you with the organizations that are leading change in our city;

  • Offer you the opportunity to meet with hundreds of Philadelphia-area millennials;

  • And of course provide the beer (in partnership with Yards), wine, and light fare to fuel your evening of networking!

Each participating organization will have representatives present to introduce you to their organization’s mission, tell you about their upcoming events, and recruit new volunteers and committee members.  Get ready to jump-start your civic engagement while mingling at one of the city’s premiere community workspaces, ImpactHUB Philly.
