Katherine and Darren Ash established the Ash Service Award to cultivate and support a culture of locally focused community service within the UGA Honors Program. Awards will support two Honors students who intern full-time in the summer on behalf of a local service organization, supporting programming that improves local communities.

The two recipients of the Ash Service Award will receive a $3,000 stipend to cover their cost of living while interning for a local service organization for approximately 8 weeks full-time in the summer of 2013.

Applicants must provide documentation of organizational support and an already established relationship to be considered for the award. To be eligible, you must be an Honors student in good academic standing who, as of summer 2013, will be a rising second, third, or fourth year. Competitive applicants will have already demonstrated a commitment to community service through prior sustained involvement. Upon completing the required service hours, recipients must provide documentation of the hours served and a report detailing the internship.
