Alumni for Others is about life long relationships and bringing families together in service and prayer. "The gift you have received, give as a gift" is an expression that resonates within the service program. The program builds on both the Jesuit and Marymount traditions of developing the whole person, challenging each of us to go beyond the comfort of our every day life and to give of ourselves, ultimately being men and women for others. The Alumni for Others service program exemplifies the mission statement of LMU in the service of faith and promotion of justice. We invite you to join us to help make a difference!
