YPC Brochure

Big Brothers Big Sisters of New York City's Young Professionals Committee (YPC) was founded 12 years ago by enthusiastic young adult professionals who have since become committed members of BBBS NYC's Board of Directors. The YPC is a diverse group of dedicated men and women who volunteer their time, talents and energy to support BBBS of NYC's many mentoring and educational programs.

Ranging in age from 21-35, these dedicated members help promote BBBS NYC by actively raising funds through various volunteer activities and special events. Past events have included wine-tastings, happy hours and book signings. The YPC also plans and manages the Gridiron Games at Giants Stadium and their largest fundraiser, Big Night Out, an annual black-tie casino night held at Cipriani 23rd Street.

Members can choose to participate in a variety of sub-committees, focusing on specific aspects of the events including:

• Marketing
• Sponsorship
• Silent Auctions and Raffles
• Hospitality
• Volunteer Recruitment

As a member of the YPC, not only will you be fundraising for one of the oldest youth organizations in New York City, you will have the opportunity to plan and attend great parties, meet new people, network, and most importantly HAVE FUN!

The funds raised through these events enable BBBS of NYC to increase the number of young people who are matched with mentoring adults.
