Young Professionals Advisory Board

Little Brothers – Friends of the Elderly’s Young Professionals Advisory Board (YPAB) brings together the city’s best and brightest to raise funds and friends to help Chicago’s seniors.

The YPAB is a group of civically minded individuals ages 24-40 dedicated to alleviating isolation and loneliness among the elderly through fundraising and social and volunteer activities.

                               

Upcoming Events:

  • September 18, 2026 – Fall Fiesta at the National Museum of Mexican Art. Join us for a fun-filled evening that is all about coming together to enjoy a night of dancing, food, drinks, raffles, and more—all while supporting a great cause.
