Assistance League of Coppell is a non-profit, tax-exempt, 501(c)(3) corporation whose operations depend solely on membership dues, donations, grants and fund-raising events. The league’s members, who are all volunteers, research community needs, develop projects to meet those needs, and raise the funds necessary to make those projects a reality.

In order to promote and reward community service in our youth, Assistance League of Coppell is proud to offer $1,000 scholarships to three graduating high school seniors who have exhibited an interest in philanthropic work and have given of their time and talents to improve their community. One of the three scholarships will be awarded to a member of our Assisteens or a child of an Assistance League of Coppell member who has been a member for at least one year. The other two scholarships will be chosen out of all the received applications. The scholarship money will be sent directly to the student’s chosen institution.
