Young Professional Leadership Committee

Our Mission

To raise funds vital for medical research and to raise awareness of cystic fibrosis.

The YPLC was founded to provide supportive funds and services to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s Greater Illinois Chapter and to aid the Foundation in its efforts to assure the development to cure and control cystic fibrosis and to improve the quality of life for those with the disease. Members of YPLC are young professionals, living and working in the Chicagoland area.

Our main fundraising event is Festive-Ale, a hand-crafted, high-end beer tasting event held each fall.
