While I may have aged out to become a member of the Grand Rapids Young Professionals (GRYP), I never grow old nor tired of the work they continue to do in our city to help community members of a certain age connect to this region in meaningful ways. This is the beauty of our GRYP!
And while throughout the year GRYP hosts many different themed events, it is their
Get Involved Unwind that is most impressive and gets to the core of why this young professional networking community is so wonderful.
For this special night, you are invited to join other locals aged 21 to 40 at Paddock Place (formerly Mangiamo!) as they showcase nearly 20 different non profit organizations that all need your assistance. Think of this as speed dating for folks looking to connect with organizations that share their values.
So whether you’re interested in a board, committee, or just a short-term volunteer commitment, then this is the night just for you. Dress code is very come as you are but dressing to impress goes a long way…just keep the tux and gown in the closet.
GRYP believes in offering spaces free of intimidation, so if you are curious but maybe shy about venturing to this event on your own, please consider reaching out to the GRYP Membership Committee at
