LOUISVILLE, Ky. (August 10, 2026) — Mark your calendars for Thursday, September 10, 2026, as the Young Professionals Association of Louisville (YPAL) participates in the 13th Annual Give for Good Louisville, the community’s largest 24-hour online giving event.
From 12:00 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. EST, supporters can make a lasting impact by contributing to YPAL’s Young Professional Development Fund, which helps Louisville-area young professionals access the resources they need to advance their careers and strengthen our community.
The Young Professional Development Fund helps Louisville-area young professionals invest in their growth by providing financial assistance for training, conferences, certifications, credentials, and other career advancement opportunities. By reducing financial barriers, the fund empowers emerging leaders to invest in themselves while building a stronger, more connected workforce for the Louisville region.
This year, YPAL is inviting the community to rally behind its mission of connecting, developing, and empowering young professionals through Give for Good Louisville.
“Every contribution helps fuel the ambition and drive we see every day in Louisville’s young professional community,” said Kristin Johnson, VP of Philanthropy. When we invest in young professionals, we’re investing in Louisville’s future.”
Community members are encouraged to mark their calendars and make a gift on September 10. Throughout the campaign, YPAL will share updates and ways to get involved through its website and social media channels.
