Established in 1996, the Saint John Paul II Award recognizes the generosity and Christian stewardship exhibited by a Catholic layperson(s) of high moral character and exemplary values, who has rendered unselfish volunteer service to the institutions and programs of the Archdiocese of New Orleans. The presentation is made in the fall of each year at the Catholic Community Foundation’s Annual Dinner. The deserving person or couple must exhibit not only volunteer board service but also hands-on ministry in our community.
