Denver Habitat Young Professionals

Under the motto “work hard, play hard, give back,” the Denver Habitat Young Professionals is used to doing just that. A division of Habitat for Humanity, the group is about bringing young professionals together to make connections throughout Denver while helping give low-income families the chance to own a home. Members of the group help spread the word about Habitat through volunteering and fundraising.

But, staying true to their motto, the group also plans and participates in fun events such as happy hours, build days and other networking events to help members connect. Recruited by the visionaries behind the HYP Taylor Henderson and Kimberly Urish, member Adam Aldrich enjoys interacting with people the most. Working for Bennington Johnson Biermann & Craigmile, Adam has the opportunity to build homes for families and network with others. “There are several things that make a build day unique: the experience of helping to build a home for a family in need, interacting with that family who are completing their sweat equity hours and the opportunity to share that experience with friends and other members of HYP,” he said.

For those who can relate to the motto of “work hard, play hard, give back,” Adam recommends they attend the next HYP event. On April 14^th, the group will host a Happy Hour with drink specials that will benefit the HYP. Other ways to get involved include following HYP on Facebook, becoming a member or joining the Leadership Team by emailing Kimberly Urish for more information.
