Nominations Invited for National Eisner Prize for Intergenerational Excellence in Community Service

The Eisner Foundation, which works to provide opportunity for children and the aging in Los Angeles County, is accepting nominations and applications for the $100,000 Eisner Prize for Intergenerational Excellence.

Launched in 2011, the annual prize is designed to recognize excellence by an individual or a nonprofit organization in uniting multiple generations, especially seniors and youth, to bring about positive and lasting changes in their community.

The cash prize is intended to spur innovation in this field and to reward those who have committed to excellence in uniting multiple generations for the betterment of the country. The prize is an attempt to identify this work, to reward it, and to see long-term if it can be replicated.

The prize is a national award, open to anyone or any group working in the United States.

Nonprofit organizations may nominate themselves. Individuals interested in pursuing the prize must be nominated by another person or organization.
