Riordan Community Service Awards

The Center for Service and Action presents six Riordan Community Service Awards annually to recognize LMU undergraduate students for their outstanding contributions in the area of community service, exemplifying the University’s tradition of being “men and women for and with others.” Community service is defined as volunteer service outside the University with a focus on serving communities where the needs are greatest.

Arete Service Award

Arete (ah-rey-TAY) is the Greek word for goodness, excellence and character of virtue. The Arete Award, sponsored by the Marymount Institute, honors graduating senior students who have demonstrated their commitment to service and justice through off-campus volunteer service, especially with the poor and marginalized.
