Peter F. Drucker Graduate School of Management Invites Applications for Drucker Award for Nonprofit Innovation
Deadline: August 22, 2003

The Peter F. Drucker Graduate School of Management at Claremont Graduate University is accepting applications for the Peter F. Drucker Award for Nonprofit Innovation.

The $25,000 award is given to a nonprofit organization in recognition of an innovative, existing program that “has made a difference in the lives of the people it serves by producing results that represent a new dimension of performance.” The award has been presented annually since 1991 by the Peter F. Drucker Foundation for Nonprofit Management (now known as the Leader to Leader Institute) and this year has been permanently moved to the Drucker Graduate School.

To be eligible for the award, the selected program must further the mission of the organization, have specific and measurable outcomes; exemplify innovation by demonstrating a new dimension of performance, have made a demonstrated difference in the lives of the people it serves, and serve as a model that can be replicated or adapted by other organizations. The nominated program must have been launched no earlier than January 1, 1998.

Applications must be submitted by the organization responsible for the program; third-party nominations will not be accepted. The applicant organization must be a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Only one entry per organization may be submitted.

Complete program information is available at the Drucker Graduate School of Management Web site.
