"I'm so excited to be part of such a powerful group.
YBNext has given me a great opportunity to network,
build my business, connect with old friends, and most
importantly to give back to the Effingham community."

"Our area's unique vitality is based in large part to
a widely-held, generational sense of responsibility to
value and improve the Effingham community. As times
change and economic, social, and family patterns evolve,
some of the more traditional ties that bind our
community have been minimized. A new challenge exists
for greater inclusion for those new to the workforce,
new entrepreneurs and new residents who want to actively
engage and contribute to the area. YBNext can serve as
an important bridge to a new generation who share the desire to
continue and expand the business opportunity and networking,
social outreach, charitable works and community leadership that
helps make the Effingham area so special."

"When my husband & I moved to Effingham over a year ago, I did
not know many people. YBNext has given me the opportunity to
meet many young business professionals, gain networking tools
and make many lasting friendships."

Through YBNext, I have gained valuable insight into the
Effingham community and count membership as a
value-added activity in my life & my family\'s future.
Specifically, it
has provided wisdom on career & life choices, networking
opportunities,
and a group to share positive values and vision for our
community. Glad
to be a part of it."

| “When I heard about the Effingham YBNext organization,
affiliated with the Effingham Chamber of Commerce I knew I
wanted to be apart of it. YBNext has given me the opportunity
to network with peers as well as meet with and learn from
established area leaders. The events sponsored by this
organization have been world class. Being involved with YBNext
has definitely enhanced my leadership abilities both personally
and professionally. This organization has truly been a success
for our young business professionals as well as our community.”
