Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership (HOBY)
Phi Sigma Pi's National Philanthropy
HOBY inspires and equips high school students to put their leadership skills into action through immersive seminars, service learning, and volunteer-powered programming. Since 1958, HOBY has challenged young people to discover their strengths, connect with peers and mentors, and build confidence to drive positive change in their schools, communities, and beyond.

Gift of Life
Gift of Life is an international bone marrow registry dedicated to finding life-saving donor matches for people suffering from blood cancers and other life-threatening diseases. Through donor registration drives and awareness campaigns, Phi Sigma Pi Members and Chapters can directly help by recruiting new donors, organizing swab events, and supporting education around marrow donation. Together, we amplify hope, save lives, and make a measurable impact in communities nationwide. Want to host a drive? Have questions? Contact Traci Ackerman at tackerman@giftoflife.org.
Extra Life
Extra Life unites gamers with a mission: to raise funds and awareness for children’s hospitals by playing games. Phi Sigma Pi Members and Chapters can participate by organizing or joining gaming events, fundraising, and engaging fellow students in support of children in need. It’s a fun, meaningful way to put leadership into action while channeling creativity, energy, and community spirit toward health care access and child wellness. Want to get involved? Have questions?
