The Greenwood Chamber recognizes that attracting and retaining a talented pool of young professionals is vital to growth in Greenwood. Simply put, they are our future and it is important that they be given every opportunity to develop as leaders. To address this pressing need, the Chamber started CONNECT YP, a program for young professionals in the Greenwood area focused on professional development, service to the community, and social/networking activities.Understanding that highly capable, motivated employees are the backbone of any successful business, CONNECT YP is designed to help young professionals develop skills and make contacts that will distinguish them in the workplace and in the community. In turn, Greenwood companies will benefit from these skills and from the positive publicity generated by well-connected employees.Membership is open to business professionals between the ages of 21 and 41, regardless of any affiliation with the Greenwood Chamber. Annual membership fee is $60, however corporate sponsorships are encouraged. Sponsors receive membership for a designated number of associates (based on sponsorship level), membership for a designated number of mentors known as Connectors (over the age of 41), as well as promotional recognition, and more.For complete membership details, contact Jeff Smith, Director of Small Business and Communications, at (864) 223-8431.
