Hindu Swayamsevak Sangh (हिंदू स्वयमसेवक संघ; Organisation of Hindu Volunteers) is a socio-religious public organization, part of the Sangh Parivar, that engages in community activities, social services and religious work amongst the adherents of Hinduism across the world.

Although connected to the right wing Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, HSS and RSS have an independent administrative and financial structure, as the RSS restricts its activities to India. RSS leaders are often invited by HSS for promotional and speaking tours, and the HSS borrows heavily from the RSS methodology, including Shakha concept, as wll as its controlling ideology of Hindutva.
