Hilton Foundation Accepting Nominations for Hilton Humanitarian Prize

The Conrad N. Hilton Foundation is accepting applications for the 2017 Conrad N. Hilton Humanitarian Prize. With a cash award of $2 million, the prize is the largest humanitarian award in the world.

Established in 1996, the prize is given to an organization, anywhere in the world, judged to have made extraordinary contributions to the alleviation of human suffering — often at great risk, hardship, or sacrifice. The prize not only is intended to recognize and advance the efforts of the recipient organization, but also to call attention to the worldwide need for humanitarian aid and to encourage others to expand their support for such aid.

To be eligible, nominees must be an established nongovernmental, publicly supported charitable organization; have been legally established for at least five years; and have audited financial statements and an operating budget (expenditures) greater than U.S. $750,000.

For complete program guidelines and nomination procedures, see the Hilton Foundation website.

DEADLINE: OCTOBER 15, 2016
