Meg Dalmut, Marymount University\u0092s director of community engagement, was\u00a0recently recognized as the outstanding community partner of the Dream Project, a local organization\u00a0that encourages and supports promising immigrant youth in their pursuit of higher education.<\/p>\n

Through Dalmut\u0092s efforts, Marymount has co-sponsored and hosted events on campus, provided\u00a0mentors at Washington-Lee High School and donated the services of two work-study students to the\u00a0Dream Project. The university also gave two Dream Project students full scholarships.<\/p>\n

Dalmut was recognized at the organization\u0092s fifth annual holiday dinner, where one of those\u00a0scholarship students spoke about fulfilling her dream of attending Marymount.<\/p>\n

\u0093It was very kind and generous of the Dream Project to honor me,\u0094 Dalmut said. \u0093I\u0092m really\u00a0committed to this issue, but I was really just doing my job and being a good citizen, which is part of\u00a0our university\u0092s mission. It\u0092s in the tradition of our founders \u0096 the Religious of the Sacred Heart of Mary\u00a0\u0096 to take care of those who need it the most.\u0094<\/p>\n

Since it started in 2011 with a handful of parent volunteers, the Dream Project has grown to an\u00a0organization that last year provided each of 48 students with $1,000 scholarships and other\u00a0assistance to attend college.<\/p>\n

\u0093We\u0092re talking about honor students, even a valedictorian of a high school,\u0094 said Allison Coles, a\u00a0Dream Project board member. \u0093We believe that all promising students should have equal access to\u00a0education.\u0094<\/p>\n

Coles praised Dalmut and Marymount President Matthew D. Shank for their efforts.<\/p>\n

\u0093Meg is an amazing community leader,\u0094 Coles said. \u0093She always has a smile on her face and a\u00a0positive attitude. She\u0092s deeply invested in the success of our students. And we\u0092re very fortunate to\u00a0have Dr. Shank here. Marymount is so involved and is truly a leader in the Arlington community.\u0094<\/p>\n
