ISHSA Mel Gahley Scholarship

 

ISHSA encourages excellence by providing scholarships to outstanding youth or adult members.  The scholarship is to be used for any 2 or 4 year college, graduate program, or trade school.  

Additional scholarships may be awarded as funds become available.
Scholarship Application
Thank you to everyone who purchased a permanent number. We look forward to giving out more scholarships this year.  The last day to turn in scholarship applications for 2025 is June 30.
To support our Scholarship for our youth, we have created permanent numbers for our exhibitors.  The permanent number stays with the horse, not the rider, for the entire calendar year at all ISHSA sanctioned shows.  100% of these funds are then put into the scholarship.
