Celebrating Service and Community Engagement
The Montana Student Volunteer Award (MSVA) honors the exceptional dedication and commitment of college students across Montana who have made significant contributions to their communities while pursuing their academic goals. In partnership with the Governor’s Office of Community Service, Montana Campus Network affiliate campuses proudly recognize individuals who exemplify the spirit of civic engagement and volunteerism.
About the Award
Each year, the MSVA celebrates college students who go above and beyond in serving their communities. Campuses organize committees to nominate outstanding students based on their service, leadership, and community impact. Through a rigorous selection process, honorees are chosen for their demonstrated commitment to building stronger, more vibrant communities.
