The AGBU Young Professionals (YP is a growing network of YP Groups and supporters around the world who preserve and promote the Armenian identity and heritage through educational, cultural, and humanitarian programs catering to the needs and interests of young Armenians between the ages of 22 to 40.
Making a difference for over 13 years, the YP movement began in 1995 with the first group in Los Angeles.
Since then, the AGBU Young Professionals has grown to become the largest Armenian YP network spanning five continents with a unified goal to:
- Improve community life through worthwhile educational, cultural, and humanitarian programs;
- Make a difference in Armenia and Karabakh by fundraising for key AGBU programs; and
- Network and partner with YPs and like organizations to perpetuate the Armenian identity.
An integral part of AGBU's global family, the Young Professionals also participate in worldwide AGBU events, such as the General Assembly, FOCUS, Centennial Conference, and World Games.
Inspiring their peers to get involved and stay involved, the open-door policy of AGBU YPs has garnered them a worldwide reputation for promoting a sense of community and belonging for young Armenians from all walks of life.
