Women’s Way Turning Point Prize

Posted by on October 12, 2009

WOMEN’S WAY and Women for Social Innovation are excited to announce a call for applications for the Turning Point Prize.

The Turning Point Prize is being offered by Women for Social Innovation, a donor-advised fund of WOMEN’S WAY.

The Turning Point Prize is seed money given annually to an emerging “social innovator” – a person between the ages of 18 and 35 who develops a creative and entrepreneurial solution to a difficult problem affecting a segment of women, girls, and families. Each applicant’s idea will be judged on the definition of the problem, the project goals and impact, innovativeness of the idea, feasibility of the project plan, the vision of success, and entrepreneurial spirit.

The 2010 Turning Point Prize is $15,000.
