Each year, we get to support the educational pursuits of some of our community's bright and ambitious students. This year, the competition was fierce, and we received an impressive number of applications from very talented individuals. After careful consideration, we are proud to present the five outstanding recipients of the 2025 scholarships.

We extend our heartfelt congratulations to:

We are confident that each of you will achieve great things in your academic endeavors and beyond. At Service First, we believe in the power of education and its ability to transform lives. We are proud to invest in the future of these remarkable individuals.

The application process for our scholarships required candidates to submit their academic transcripts, providing insight into their dedication and achievements in their studies. Additionally, applicants were asked to write an essay explaining how they plan to live out the philosophy of “people helping people,” a core value we hold dear. This essay allowed us to understand each candidate's vision for making a positive impact within their communities and beyond.

Thank you to all the applicants who participated in this year's scholarship program. We are inspired by your passion and dedication and encourage you to continue striving for excellence. Stay connected with us for more opportunities and updates. Best wishes to all our scholarship winners and to those continuing their educational journeys!
