The Rich Murray Volunteer Service Scholarship recognizes a St. Cloud State University student each year who has demonstrated a commitment of giving through volunteerism while a student at St. Cloud State University. This may be service with an established organization, or individual acts of service over a significant period of time.
This $500 scholarship is made possible by a generous gift from Richard E. Murray, former director of SCSU Career Services. Mr. Murray started this scholarship because he believes in three basic ideals:
1. The value of education;
2. The value of giving back a little of what has been given; and,
3. The belief that everyone will need the help of others at some time.
