About Kershaw County Young Professionals
Kershaw County Young Professionals is a division of the Kershaw County Chamber of Commerce that started in 2021. Our goal is to provide a platform for young people to grow, both personally and professionally, and to help create strong future leaders in our community.
The annual membership includes at least 6 free events between July - June.
Our events are structured around three pillars:
- Networking
- Entrepreneurship
- Leadership Development
Coffee Meet-ups: In addition to these primary events, we meet for coffee on the 3rd Wednesday of every month in Kershaw County to promote networking and relationship building with other young professionals.
Who should join?
Anyone living in, working in, or with ties to Kershaw County between ages 21-45.
Learn more about our organization and follow all of our activities on our social media pages.
