TESTIMONIALS

  • "PYP is about creating unique experiences. We want members to walk away from an event feeling like they've not only made useful connections with members and attendees but with the city we live in."

    Morgan Whiteley, 2018 President

  • The value of a PYP membership is beyond what I anticipated when I first joined in 2017. Attending my first event, I was immediately welcomed to an organization that values the diverse backgrounds of its members. At the time, I was working for a nonprofit and was able to connect with young professionals looking to give back to their community. As I become more familiar with the organization, I joined committees and become more involved. The leaders of PYP have consistently invested in ensuring a great member experience. Each event is well organized and welcoming to new members and long-time members.

  • PYP has helped me propel forward in my career through volunteer opportunities that have helped me acquire skills that were needed for the next step in my career. All the while, I have had the opportunity to make life long, like-minded friends!

    Matt Horan 2019 CO Chair, 2020-Present CO Board Advisor 

  • The networking and relationships built through the PYP serve not only your career but also the community. PYP and the partnership with schools motivated me to go back to school for my masters degree and connect more with professionals in the Pittsburgh area. Thank you!
