“I don’t know what your destiny will be, but one thing I know, the only ones among you who will be really happy are those who will have sought and found how to serve.”

– Albert Schweitzer

Imagine a chosen South Dakota college campus flooded with over 200 high school sophomores and 100 staff, cheering loudly, smiling big, listening to keynote speakers and panelists, joining in on activities and participating together in a large-scale community service project.
Sound like fun? Yeah, it is.

Every year our 100% volunteer run organization puts on the annual event that will broaden the minds and challenge the spirits of our state’s chosen sophomores. This means HOBY South Dakota volunteers are crucial to our cause. They are the life blood of our HOBY South Dakota seminar each and every year! Due to the selfless efforts of our O-U-T-S-T-A-N-D-I-N-G HOBY South Dakota volunteers, more than 355,000 students have participated in HOBY programs since 1958.

We are always seeking exceptional individuals to join in, and there are many ways you can! Come volunteer with HOBY South Dakota!

HOBY SOUTH DAKOTA VOLUNTEERS COME FROM ALL BACKGROUNDS & EXPERIENCES TO WORK TOGETHER TOWARDS REALIZING HOBY’S VISION.

They are:

  • Keynote speakers and guest panelists who challenge students’ ideas about leadership
  • Group facilitators who guide participants through their experience
  • Advocates who engage local communities and companies to help fund the participants’ program costs
  • Recruiters who share the HOBY story and encourage schools to get involved
  • Professionals who serve on the boards and program committees of HOBY state corporations and provide guidance on program planning, marketing, finances, and more.
