Giving Thanks – Your Gift Helps Us Champion a Culture of Excellence

Here at the South Dakota Hall of Fame, we know this to be true; without your support, we would not be able to Champion a Culture of Excellence in South Dakota. By sharing these amazing stories across the state, we are inspiring the youth of South Dakota. We are showing them that they too can chase their dreams!

Today more than ever, the South Dakota Hall of Fame is unique in our mission and programming. Each year we grow and expand to inspire.

Thanks to generous supports like you, we are making an impact. We are reaching students, teachers, media, and generations through stories that highlight everyday South Dakotans. We are showcasing the power of chasing one’s dreams.

Our mission is supported solely by the generosity of individuals and organizations who believe in our vision. Our supporters recognize that together, we will have a profound effect on our state’s culture.

Thanks to this generosity, We have grown in numerous ways this past year, including:

  • Expansion to the Legends & Learning program; a program that tells the inspiring stories of South Dakota’s Champions for Excellence while helping teachers fulfill curriculum requirements in core subjects with a comprehensive digital collection.

  • Legacy Interviews featuring stories of inductees. These interviews are featured in both video interviews and podcasts and are reaching a wider audience than ever before.

  • The Endowment Campaign ensures the longevity of the Hall of Fame. We have reached $3.9 Million. Thanks to the generosity of many, we are almost to the goal of $4 Million!
