Lion Acts of Service

Whether volunteering or mentoring others, there are so many ways the LMU family community connects and serves. Meet the Lions leading the charge as people for and with others. Be inspired here!

We’d love to have you share your own story or nominate a fellow Lion. Tell us more about the efforts and causes that mean so much to you or them.
