As a HOBY Alum, you are a part of a community of over 500,000 leaders from around the world. HOBY Alumni are change makers in business, government, nonprofit organizations, the arts, and more!

Leadership for Service (L4S)
HOBY Alumni truly put their service leadership learning into action after the seminar concludes. Each year, HOBY alumni are challenged to complete 100 hours of service to their communities. These service hours are a tangible way for our alumni to apply their passion and leadership skills toward making a positive impact.
Over 5,000,000 service hours have been logged by HOBY alumni since 1998, and that number grows as HOBY alumni log 60,000+ hours of service each year.
