We all experience it. You walk into a networking event and feel nervous, lost, and don’t know where to start. But networking doesn’t have to be scary! On Tuesday, October 28th, YNPN Boston held a Fright-Free Networking event at Cornwall’s Pub. Here were some of the tips we shared to help you get past the fear of networking!

Meet Renee Fraker, Development Manager at The Sports Museum at TD Garden. Renee is also a YNPN Boston ambassador on our Membership team!

Imari Paris Jeffries has had a prolific career - and he's just getting started. He began his nonprofit career after developing a life-long value of service while serving in the military, which he joined as a homeless high school graduate. He almost left the sector for good when he didn't have $100 in his bank account to put his parents up in a hotel after their house burned down. Though Imari stayed in the sector, reaching executive-level leadership before he turned 30, lack of fair compensation is one of the fatal flaws he sees in the nonprofit industry.

The Leadership Team of YNPN Boston is thrilled to introduce our organization’s new tagline: “Empowering and Connecting Tomorrow’s Nonprofit Leaders”!
