Washington Campus Compact and Inspireum today announced the winners of the 2011 Students In Service Awards, honoring college students for their outstanding service projects that positively impact society and inspire others to serve.

The three winners were chosen by a national selection committee of civic leaders and over 714,000 supporters across the country who voted online for their favorite service project. Hundreds of college students nationwide applied for the award, and collectively contributed thousands of hours of time, effort, knowledge and leadership toward some of the most difficult challenges facing communities around the globe.

Before I started working in community service-learning, I was one of those people who didn't have much of a social conscience. Now all of that has changed, and I say, 'Put me in the trenches to do the real work to make a difference.'"
