THE MOTHER CABRINI MERCY PRIZE
Annual Prize for Immigration Scholarship
“Dear God, give me a heart that can embrace the universe.” – Saint Frances Xavier Cabrini
The Mother Cabrini Mercy Prize is awarded every November 13th to one or more persons for excellence in immigration scholarship and advocacy. That is the Feast Day of America’s first saint and the Patroness of Immigrants. Mother Cabrini was a great champion of the Catholic social justice tradition of mercy for migrants and others in need.
