Upcoming Events
Happy Hour + Networking Bingo
We’ve had a wave of new members join YNPN recently, so we wanted to create something that brings people together in a way that actually feels good.
Join us for a happy hour in the heart of Old Town, designed to be both relaxed and genuinely worthwhile. Whether you're looking to meet new people, build relationships in the nonprofit and social impact space, or grow your network in a way that supports your professional development, this is a space to do that without the usual pressure.
We’ll have a private room at Societe Brewing, so no awkward searching for your group. We’re also bringing back networking bingo as a light, optional way to spark conversations and help you connect with people you might not otherwise meet. It’s there if you want a little structure, and easy to ignore if you don’t.
This isn’t forced networking. It is a room full of thoughtful, engaged people, and there will be plenty of opportunities to make meaningful connections that extend beyond the event.
Come ready to connect in whatever way feels right to you, whether that’s catching up with familiar faces, meeting someone new, or being more intentional about expanding your network.
A big thank you to Societe Brewing for hosting us.
What to expect:
A strong mix of new and familiar faces across the nonprofit and social impact space
A private, welcoming space to connect and settle in
Networking bingo as an optional icebreaker to get conversations flowing
Real opportunities to build relationships that support your career and professional growth
Come solo or bring a friend. You’ll be in good company either way.
