Thanks for visiting our website.  The Young Republicans of Allegheny County are more active than ever.  With the launch of our new sub committees and the collaborative skills by all of the leaders within the committees, we are going to make more of an impact in Allegheny County.  In the last year, this committee has built its social existence within the county, and now we are going to catapult those efforts into becoming more involved with political races and charitable causes.  In addition to community activism, the Allegheny County YRs are going to build the networking between members with an online directory, chamber of commerce, and member perks.  The YRs are going to receive more rewards and opportunities for becoming a member.   Please browse through our website to learn more about our newly constructed group!

Also, at this month’s Happy Hour, we are excited to have Tom Baker speak about his book Get Involved!  As we said before, the new goal of our group is to promote and build awareness for the member and their ventures. 

Get Involved! Making the Most of your 20s and 30s is perfect model of the new direction the YRs.   We should not just talk of our conservative values, we should practice them so that we can grow the organization and get our candidates elected.

We are proud to support Tom as he has been asked to speak about his book by prestigious organizations in every corner of our state and neighboring states.  Tom is a class act.  His motivation and determination is very inspiring and contagious!

Tom will have his books available for purchase at the Happy Hour for $15.00 each.  15% of the proceeds will be donated back to our organization.  For more information, please visit www.bakerleadership.com

 Hope to see you on August 26th!!
