By accepting the award the student is also inducted into the prestigious Brock Leaders Citizenship Society. The total value of the award is $8,000 ($2,000 per year) and is renewable each year the student remains a member of the Brock Leaders Citizenship Society.

In order to maintain membership in the Brock Leaders Citizenship Society each year, members must:

• Maintain a minimum average of 80% in full-time studies.
• Perform a minimum of 40 hours of community service for the fall/winter term.
• Complete at least one level of the Foundations in Leadership Program each year.
• Attend all mandatory BLCS meetings and events.

BLCS members continue to achieve academic success while utilizing their past leadership abilities to continue to grow, motivate, organize, inspire and create opportunities for themselves, University and the surrounding community.

Throughout the fall/winter sessions at Brock, BLCS is committed to providing their skills and expertise to both the University and the surrounding communities such as St. Catharines, Thorold, Pelham and Niagara-on-the-Lake. Members who return home during the summer are strongly encouraged to maintain their level of contribution to their residential community.

The members of BLCS are always looking to become part of large initiatives at Brock. They are dedicated individuals who desire to be part of events in the university and community. Through regular meetings and constant communication, members of BLCS plan their initiatives and execute them with the leadership abilities that first enabled them to become part of the organization.
