Our Young Leaders Board
The Nourishing Hope Young Leaders Board (YLB) is a group of enthusiastic and talented young professionals who are committed to giving back to their community and helping people in need.
They use their creativity, leadership, innovation and professional skills to support Nourishing Hope’s work and mission. The YLB focuses its efforts in three main areas: 1) raising funds for Nourishing Hope; 2) volunteering our time and skills to support Nourishing Hope and its visitors and 3) developing our members into increasingly impactful contributors. Our largest event each year is the End Hunger Social, which is held each spring.
To learn more about the YLB or to become a member, please email [email protected], call (773) 525-1777 x 223, or visit the YLB on LinkedIn.
