Mellon Auditorium in Washington, D.C., for an unforgettable evening of celebration and purpose. This year’s black-tie gala will be chaired by Marymount’s distinguished alumna and CEO of Ridgewells Catering, Susan Lacz ’83.

Now in its fifth year, the Halo Awards Ceremony is a powerful expression of Marymount’s mission to lead through service, excellence and community engagement. The event will spotlight the extraordinary accomplishments of alumni, faculty and community members whose lives and work embody those values, while raising vital funds in support of the Marymount Student Emergency Scholarship, which provides direct assistance to students facing unexpected financial hardship.
