History/Mission
Muncie Young Professionals (MYP)
Formed in 2006, MYP was a group of people who wanted to help bridge the gap between young professionals and community leaders. The goal was to offer a casual networking group to those beginning their careers who might feel uncomfortable in more formal settings. It began with social events, meeting at Muncie establishments to forge new relationships while showing off what the area had to offer. Later MYP began volunteering – joining in citywide river cleanups and helping the area food bank. After a few years, professional development was added along with learning lunches to help members grow their professional skills. Muncie Young Professionals has continued to grow and prosper, having become affiliated with the Muncie Delaware County Chamber of Commerce. MYP leadership even serves as an ex-officio member of the Chamber’s Board of Directors.
