    HYP is the best place to meet people. I met my fiance, realtor, and so many other friends and connections because of HYP

    HYP allowed me to meet genuinely great people, it helped make moving to a city where I knew no one eventually feel like home. I love how much HYP does for the community and its residents.

    HYP has helped me connect with amazing people and dive deeper into a city I love. Through events, volunteering, and networking, I’ve built friendships, grown professionally, and found new ways to give back to the community. It’s been a great way to make Harrisburg feel even more like home!

    HYP has allowed me to connect with folks outside of my line of work, teaching me so much about leadership in areas outside of government. I'm always reminded that HYP is indeed a great place to live, work, and play!

    The love of volleyball led me to HYP, but HYP led me to new friends, job opportunities, and a home. HYP has ultimately helped me grow individually and within the Harrisburg community, living up to the mission: making Harrisburg a better place to live, work, and play

    HYP is a vehicle for engagement with the Harrisburg Community. When I moved to Harrisburg, I had no connections outside of my work, but HYP has enabled me to meet my closest friends and to gain a local network of active professionals through the committee meetings, social events, and sports leagues. Involvement with HYP fosters camaraderie, professional and personal development, and civic virtues.

    HYP helped me find my place in Harrisburg right after college, grow both personally and professionally, and make amazing friends. I never expected to lead the Sports Committee, but taking that chance turned into an incredible opportunity for growth! Here in HYP, we empower each other.

    I moved to Harrisburg without knowing anyone. After attending a New Member social in August 2018, only a few weeks after having moved here, I quickly connected with new community, friends and volunteer opportunities that hooked me into Harrisburg. HYP opened the door for me to understand the beauty, community & connection that exists in this small city.

    HYP is how I made almost all of my friends in Harrisburg, and how I learned how to give back to my community. It's a huge part of my life, and one of the main reasons I decided to buy a house in the Harrisburg area. If you're considering joining HYP or getting more involved, just take the leap--you won't regret it!
