Our Mission:
Through our collective resources, Habitat Young Leaders & Professionals of Pinellas County (HYLP) fully supports Habitat for Humanity of Pinellas County and its mission. By organizing young professionals and creating adaptive change in our community, we give back to and strengthen our community. In concert with Habitat Pinellas, we work toward the elimination of substandard housing.
Vision Statement:
We believe in strengthening common bonds, creating networking opportunity, promoting healthy relationships, and fulfilling community values.
We will focus on organizing young professionals in Pinellas County; provide leadership opportunities, meaningful social and volunteer activities, and the creation of corporate and individual partnership initiatives.
We are committed to our relationship with Habitat Pinellas and their effort to address future housing, social and economic needs of our community.
