Honoring Our Roots, Building Our Future

Honoring Our Roots, Building Our Future

Our Day of Giving is inspired by our very first donation day in the spring of 1921, when more than 100 women and church leaders came together to prepare supplies for the opening of the House of Mercy—the first of many LSS services.

In honor of that historic moment 104 years ago, we come together to celebrate stories of positive change, inspire generosity through matching and challenge gifts, and raise vital funds to support children, families, and communities across South Dakota.

Join us April 24-30 to help build a future where all South Dakotans are healthy, safe, and accepted.

Thank you to our sponsors!
