The California Dream Act Service Incentive Grant Program encourages California Dream Act Application students with a Cal Grant B award to
perform community or volunteer service.
The California Student Aid Commission will be awarding up to $3,000 per academic year (up to $1,500 per semester) to 2,500 eligible students. The grant will be available to the student for up to eight semesters while they have an active Cal Grant B award. Students must meet satisfactory academic progress and complete the necessary verification for their Cal Grant B award.
Students must apply annually, attend a qualifying institution, have sufficient unmet financial need, and complete community or volunteer service hours in that academic year. Students need to perform at least 150 hours per semester of community or volunteer service. Students can volunteer with any of the organization(s) on the list of service organizations or with any organization not on the list if it meets the criteria for a qualifying service organization.
