2026 Regional Summit
The Greater Grand Forks Young Professionals (GGFYP) are proud to announce the Young Professionals Regional Summit, set for July 28-29, 2026 at the Aleris Center in Grand Forks, ND. Designed to inspire, educate, and connect young professionals from across the region.
The work that GGFYP does is worth a celebration! This special night features music, delicious food, great company, and a business meeting where we look at what we’ve accomplished and where we’re headed as an organization.

An annual donation drive where GGFYP distributes orange garbage bags to affluent neighborhoods in Grand Forks with a flyer stapled to it indicating items of need from area non-profits. After a few weeks, the orange bags will be collected, donations sorted, & then redistributed to the participating nonprofits.

This series has quickly grown to be a YP favorite, offering a great way for YPs to catch up with fellow members while learning about a variety of professional development and community building topics.
Thank you to our amazing sponsors!
