ISVA Voluntary Service Senior Scholarships

We offer $1,500 voluntary service scholarships for graduating seniors.   The scholarships will be awarded primarily on community service and citizenship.  Other factors, including academics, will be considered only secondarily.  This scholarship honors those who have chosen to serve their community, though the type of service is not limited in any way.  

To be eligible for the ISVA Voluntary Service Scholarship, the applicant must:

  • Currently reside in the Village of Indian Springs

  • Be a graduating senior (or home schooled) or recent high school graduate

  • Plan to enter an institution of higher learning (2 or 4 year or vocational) in the following fall for the first time

  • Truthfully complete and timely submit the attached application

  • Submit application before March 22, 2024

ISVA Awards Four Scholarships

Each year the Indian Springs Village Association awards scholarships to High School students who are graduating and planning to go to college.  They have to meet rigorous scholastic & community service standards. We received many incredible applications and were reminded of the intelligence, persistence, and kindness our students possess. The scholarship committee, like most years, had a difficult time selecting our winners. Thanks so much to all students who submitted their applications.

For 2023, we're excited and pleased to announce that these scholarships will go to four outstanding, graduating seniors, Yi Xin Tay, Ethan Scott, Catherine Li and Andrew Goin.

Our award winners were heavily involved in numerous service projects in and around The Woodlands. Meals on Wheels, Interfaith, Teach2Learn, TechGirlz, Houston Methodist Hospital, ORWALL Challenger League, Alzheimer’s Association, Angel Reach, Houston Youth Climate Strike, the Woodlands Children’s Museum and more all benefited from the tireless service these incredible students provided.

We presented these scholarships at our May 9, 2023 meeting at 7 pm, Indian Springs Village Association Board meeting.  CONGRATULATIONS, Yi Xin, Ethan, Catherine and Andrew!

ISVA has funded $47,000 in scholarships over the last ten years. Funds are raised primarily through the community events such as The Taste of the Village held in the month of October. Recent scholarship recipients by year include:
