🤝 Turning ideas into action for communities in need.

📜 Read her story to see how one spark ignited a trip to HOBY - Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership WLC:
~~~~~

“Attending WLC was the best thing I have ever done. I loved , and I cannot explain how grateful I am for MS bringing me to the WLC.

It's the most welcoming and accepting place, and truly everyone there was amazing. I'm really close with many of the people that I met at WLC, and my group is already planning a trip for us to all meet up again. I miss it so much, and I'm beyond excited for whenever I can go back.

I've truly changed through WLC, and I am beyond grateful for the experience and the people I met.”

“Hi, my name is Bailey. I am so grateful for the opportunity to attend WLC!

I met so many amazing people that have turned into long distance friends. I also learned so much in such a short amount of time.

My biggest advice is if this opportunity ever presents itself to you do not let it slip away!”

“Hi, my name is Daniel and I LOVED WLC!! For me, it was not only a rewarding experience, I also made life-long friendships (me and my group still talk almost every day, it’s awesome).

Everyday since then, i’ve only wanted to go back to somewhat relieve a fraction of my experience. For anyone that gets the opportunity to go to WLC, please go!

Cannot stress enough how much this and HOBY as a whole has changed my life!”

And if you need some motivation, here’s what a previous ambassador said about their WLC experience:

“My favorite part of WLC wasn't a single activity or moment; it was the people, the lessons, and the sense of community. WLC showed me that leadership begins with authenticity, grows through service, and lasts through the friendships that turn strangers into family. WLC is a once in a lifetime experience and I encourage every student who has the chance to attend to take it. You never know how much something might change your life.” - Molly Moody, WLC ‘24
