The J.M. Kaplan Fund calls on nonprofit innovators and social entrepreneurs across the U.S. to apply for the 2025 J.M.K. Innovation Prize.

- Heritage Conservation
Protecting the places and traditions that communities care about most. - The Environment
Advancing climate solutions for a more resilient, vibrant planet. - Social Justice
Working with communities to build a more welcoming and just society.
This year, the Fund will award 10 Prizes, each including $150,000 in unrestricted funding over three years, plus $25,000 for technical assistance. Awardees also have access to a dynamic peer community, strategic resources, and hands-on support to help turn their ideas into sustainable growth and impact.
The deadline for applications is April 25, 2025.
Interested candidates can learn more about past awardees and register for an informational webinar on April 1, 2025, at 1:00 PM ET.
