Young professionals

Our Young Professionals are early-career ambassadors for Chicago youth. They provide fundraising support for our programming while networking together to build a better Chicago. Collectively known as the "YPB," the leadership board of rising stars are indispensable to our mission and run events open to all young professionals (wrestlers and non-wrestlers!) who are committed to creating Life Champions.

The Young Professionals group is open to all. Come to an event, volunteer for Beat the Streets Chicago with people of similar interests, network. Board opportunities are available as well, but board service is not a requirement. Do some good. Have some fun.
