2025-26 IWMS Volunteer Service Award
Due to the unfortunate pause of the President’s Volunteer Service Award by AmeriCorps, the PTA at Indian Woods will be starting the Indian Woods Volunteer Service Award to continue to recognize those individuals and honors students who demonstrate outstanding service to their community, nation, or abroad. Volunteer documentation and trackers will be kept the same as PVSA in the hopes that the PVSA will be reinstated in the future. Volunteer service hours should be tracked during the twelve-month period between April 1, 2025 and March 31, 2026.
All forms must be submitted to the Indian Woods office by April 10, 2026.
Program Information Entry Forms & Details HERE.
Please contact Amy Griffin at amysungriffin@gmail.com if you have any questions.
