<p>Each year, the Meridian Society members approve awards to be given to outstanding community outreach programs and projects to be supported through SIUE departments and services. The awards are recommended by the Awards Committee to the membership based on the work of a panel of reviewers.</p>
<p>The awards are made possible from members’ annual dues (Impact Fund).</p>
<p>SIUE based organizations (with an SIUE account) are invited to apply for the Meridian Awards. The annual deadline for submitting a Meridian Award application is February 1st.</p>
