Join the HYP Board

welcome aboard

Thank you for your interest in becoming a board member with Habitat Young Professionals (HYP) Charlotte! HYP Charlotte’s mission is to make affordable housing a matter of conscience and encourage a spirit of service in our community by engaging young professionals to advocate, volunteer and give within their means.

The HYP Charlotte Board is a working board that is made up of 14 members. As a working board, our board members are actively involved in running networking events, fundraisers and volunteer days. Read on for Board roles, expectations and more!

More about the Board

general board expectations

HYP Board Members will:

  • Must maintain an active HYP membership (Give what you can; $15 per month OR $150 per year)
  • Board members are also expected to contribute $1,000 annually outside of their board membership contribution via the “Give or Get” model. This means allowing more individuals or corporations to give directly to the organization or introduce donors to HYP that give directly as a result of the board member’s efforts.
  • Must attend the Board member orientation
  • Must attend Full Day Board Retreat in August
  • Must attend at least 10 Board meetings per year (12 total; meetings are monthly)
  • Must attend at least 6 HYP social events per year (these can be Third Thursday Social, Saturday Builds, or other events held throughout the year)
