Overall Service-learning-participants should demonstrate the best service-learning project overall at the service-learning showcase. This project incorporates all of the qualities of social causes, innovation, creativity, collaboration and leadership.

Community Impact-the criteria for this poster is for service-learning participants to have an impact in the community by working on social causes that improve the capacity and infrastructure of the organization. 

Innovation, creativity and advocacy- the criteria for these awards will focus on using the ingenuity of students and creativity of service projects in the community to solve community problems (i.e., building ramps for seniors, painting murals for a school or city block, neighborhood clean-ups, mobilizing a march, organizing voting drives).

Collaboration/leadership-this criteria will recognize the collaboration and leadership skills needed to bring together a group of people to conduct a service project. It is important to coordinate the efforts behind the scenes to get volunteers to and from service-learning projects.
