The Barry & Marie Lipman Family Prize 2021 at the University of Pennsylvania

Application Deadline:Monday, August 3, 2020 at 5:00 PM EDT

The Barry & Marie Lipman Family Prize at the University of Pennsylvania is an annual global prize given to one organization that celebrates leadership and innovation in the social sector with an emphasis on impact and transferability of practices.

• The Barry & Marie Lipman Family Prize encourage organizations from around the globe to apply. 
• We look for organizations that have a proven effective service model and capacity for growth. While the organization should be building a track record of success, it may not yet have gained significant recognition.
• For the winner, this Prize brings its work to a larger audience, attracts new potential donors, and provides resources that will help scale the work or improve organizational sustainability. Organizations do not have to operate outside of their home country to win the Prize. We also equally encourage applicants serving areas of North America to apply along with those from other regions of the globe.
