The Eisner Foundation (yes, Michael Eisner ex-Disney CEO), which works to provide opportunity for children and the aging, 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.
The deadline is March 16, 2012.
