Young Professionals Board

Young Professionals Board

Become a Member!

The Willow House Young Professionals Board is a group of focused and hardworking young professionals dedicated to helping Willow House on its mission of supporting children, families, schools, and communities coping with grief through community outreach, fundraising, and service events.

In addition to helping Willow House plan and organize its annual events (Walk & 5K Run, Fundraising Gala, etc), the Young Professionals Board will run a variety of other events ranging from a Welcome BBQ, kickball tournament, community service, or donation drives (to name a few) with the goal being to unite and connect Willow House families and the community around them in ways outside your “typical” Willow House events.

​With this in mind, we hope to make dealing with grief easier by truly showing the meaning of family. By connecting people and benefiting the community, we hope to create bonds that last for a lifetime while positively impacting the lives of others. But there is just one thing: WE NEED YOUR HELP!
