The AGBU Young Professionals of Northern California (AGBU-YPNC) was established in September 1998, as part of the global AGBU YP network, a growing organization of groups and supporters committed to preserving and promoting the Armenian identity and heritage through educational, cultural and humanitarian programs for young Armenians between the ages of 22 to 40.  AGBU-YPNC organizes events throughout the year, including the signature “AGBU SF Winter Gala,” to fulfill this mission and bring together the Armenian YP community of Northern California.

Since launching in winter of 2000, AGBU SF Winter Gala has become one of the premier AGBU-YP events, drawing hundreds of young professional Armenian’s from around the world each year to San Francisco.  Over its twelve year history, the AGBU SF Winter Gala has raised $48,900 for AGBU projects and programs world-wide.  

Annual donations to AGBU charities have been made possible thanks to the generosity of contributors and Gala attendees over the years.
