Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership of Illinois Central/South

Fairbury, Illinois

Cause Description:
HOBY's mission is to inspire and develop our global community of youth and volunteers to a life dedicated to leadership, service and innovation. HOBY programs are conducted annually in Central/Southern Illinois serving local and international high school students. HOBY programs provide youth selected by their schools to participate in unique leadership training, service-learning and motivation- building experiences. HOBY also provides adults with opportunities to make a significant impact on the lives of youth by volunteering. Over 4,000 committed HOBY volunteers plan and execute the programs each year, serving both at the local HOBY affiliate level and on HOBY's Board of Trustees. Due to the selfless efforts of volunteers and the contributions of generous donors, nearly 9,000 students participate in HOBY programs annually. Today, over 375,000 proud alumni make HOBY stronger than ever. HOBY alumni are leaders in their schools and communities, throughout the United States and the world, making a difference for others through service. Our organizational mission helps Sophomores in high school by: • Providing interactive opportunities for critical thinking to address real world issues facing our nation and world. • Increasing leadership knowledge and competence. Many of these students are already leaders in their own schools and communities. • Encouraging Sophomores to advocate for social responsibility among individuals and corporations. • Examining personal leadership, practicing group leadership and pledging leadership in society. • Enhancing leadership skills through active involvement in the community
