Established through the Daniel and Barbara Chapman Trust, the Chapman Prize annually recognizes and honors the efforts and achievements of individuals and organizations in the United States who make significant contributions to American society.
The award is focused on a different theme each year, and the theme in 2024 is health and wellness. Funding will be awarded to a charitable individual or organization who has contributed most significantly to the improvement of health and wellness in the United States. By way of example, contributions may include providing access to quality and affordable health care, initiatives that empower individuals to develop active, healthy lifestyles that begin in childhood and continue through all phases of life, and/or programs that promote healthy environments in homes, schools, and neighborhoods. Approximately $100,000 is awarded each year.
Applicants must be either U.S. citizens or U.S.-based nonprofits who will use the disbursement exclusively in the United States; have been conducting charitable work for at least the last three years; and can show demonstrated impact in the selected focus area of the year in which the application is submitted.
For complete program guidelines and application instructions, see the Chapman Prize website.
Deadline: September 30, 2024
