The DC Student Leader Awards celebrates exceptional student leadership in Washington, D.C., hosted by the Kiwanis Club and funded by the Kiwanis Foundation of the District of Columbia. For over 25 years, scholarships have been awarded to high school seniors, thanks to community, corporate, and individual support.

Open to seniors from public, private, and charter schools in D.C., the scholarship supports all educational pathways, including vocational training, two- and four-year colleges, and accredited institutions. In 2025, we awarded $75,000 in scholarships across all eight wards, empowering students to build brighter futures.
