Welcome to the registration and application site for the 2009 President's Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll, a national recognition program that promotes the historic civic mission of our nation's colleges and universities.

President Obama has made service a central cause of his administration, and through his United We Serve initiative he is calling on all Americans to make service part of their daily lives. The President places a high priority on supporting and developing the role of higher institutions, and their students, staff, and faculty, in addressing the nation's most pressing social needs. Additional information regarding the President's Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll can be found at NationalService.gov.

Applications for the 2009 President's Honor Roll will be accepted in two categories for service performed during the 2008-2009 academic year:

General Community Service – This category recognizes the breadth and quality of a broad range of service activities.

Special Focus Area – This category commends service projects that support the high school graduation and college readiness of disadvantaged youth.

Six institutions – three from each category – will be named as Presidential Award winners.
