The Madonna Della Strada Award is named after the Sancta Maria della Strada, the first church that Ignatius and the early Jesuits obtained to serve the urban poor in the center of Rome. The award honors lives that reflect the Ignatian values of direct service to the poor, and working and educating for a more just society.
