Meet Our 2025 HMCs!

The HOBY MO Champions program is designed for exceptional HOBY Missouri young alumni (under 21 years of age) who are looking to continue their HOBY journey through personal development and service to their communities.

HMCs participate in activities throughout the year, which all correspond to at least one of the three program goals are: 1) participate in Personal Leadership activities, 2) support HOBY Missouri and 3) have some FUN!

Applications for the HMC program are now closed. The application window will reopen on Sunday, June 15, 2025.

Want to engage in community service but not sure w

Want to engage in community service but not sure where to start? Be on the lookout for a new HOBY service initiative launching next month! #HOBYatHOME In the mean time, here are some HOBY Service Tips to help you make that first step!

1. Start With What You Have: Are you good at math? Love to make art? Maybe you enjoy organizing events! Ask yourself, “What are skills that I am good at?” and donate that talent to your community. Volunteer your time at afterschool tutoring, create cards for hospital patients or help an organization in your community plan an event. Your skills are valuable and sharing them can make a big difference!

2. Join A Group: Check if your school, community center or local organization has a group where community service is apart of objectives! This will ensure that you engage in volunteerism throughout the year without having to do it on your own.

3. Talk It Out: If you’re unsure where to start, talk to a teacher, counselor, or family member about how you can help in your community. They can provide guidance, suggest opportunities, or even help you connect with local organizations.
