STUDENT AWARDS
The Lovis Foundation honors students who are going above and beyond to create a positive culture in their schools and communities. Our student awards give school personnel and others a way to recognize young people who are often overlooked. Our goal is to reward the difference young people make, so there is no academic requirement.
2025 Nominations open until March 31, 2025
