SOURCE Star of the Month
SOURCE highlights a student, faculty or staff member from the health professional schools monthly as the SOURCE Star of the Month. These individuals exemplify what it means to be a champion of service in Baltimore. Providing their time, energy and expertise through service with SOURCE partnering organizations or student groups, they are committed to positive change for the Baltimore community.
The SOURCE Star of the Month is featured in the SOURCE Weekly Service Scoop, on our website and social media. Previously, this recognition was known as "Champion of the Month", and below you will find profiles for our all of our previous SOURCE Star of the Month and Champion of the Month winners. Read more below to learn about our past winners and their passion to stay involved and make a difference in the Baltimore community. You can also find previous "Partner of the Month" features which highlight the tremendous service our partner community-based organizations have been engaged with over the years.
