This fun-filled evening provides great networking opportunities for attendees and inspires a tremendous amount of support for Twin Cities Habitat. This year, dozens of guests signed up to volunteer at an HYPN build day and $19,000 was raised to help Habitat build a Twin Cities where everyone has a safe, affordable place to call home.

“We’re a group that likes to do a lot of good and have a lot of fun. We support Habitat’s mission by organizing volunteer days on build sites and attending social events like tonight’s” said Jon Slock, the Chair of the Habitat Young Professionals Network.

Please check out photos from the event taken by Michael Moschogianis here.

Established in 2009, the Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity Young Professionals Network (HYPN) is a group of individuals in their early 20s to early 40s seeking to build a Twin Cities where everyone has a safe, affordable place to call home while also providing exceptional networking opportunities for future leaders.
