GSI Volunteer Grant Program
What is the Volunteer Grant Program?
-
It is an opportunity to make financial aid available to GPLHS students by volunteering at GSI Thrift.
-
It helps GSI Thrift by encouraging volunteerism and therefore generates more revenue which can be used to support GPLHS and other ministries
How does it work for the volunteers?
-
Volunteers become a part of the program by completing the volunteer registration form available by clicking the button below.
-
Volunteers work 96 hours between July 1 and June 30; GSI will give GPLHS up to $600 towards this grant program for every 96 hours worked.
-
One to three people may work together to get the 96 hours; individuals may work for up to three grants (288 hours).
-
Volunteers will have a training session in which they will learn about the various tasks that can be done.
How does it work for GPLHS students?
-
Any student enrolled at GPLHS may apply for a GSI Volunteer Grant after June 1; click the 'Tuition Grant Application' button below to print your form.
-

When a grant is awarded, it will be applied directly to the recipient's account for the upcoming school year.
