TOPIC OF THE MONTH
the elevate prize GET LOUD award for april is now closed!
This month and every month, our position is clear — refugees and immigrants are welcome. They make communities better, stronger, and richer. However, the organizations supporting them have faced some of the most extreme funding cuts.
Together with past GET LOUD Award winners Hijas del Campo and Yes We Can World Foundation, and Give Your Best UK we want to hear from YOU about the most outstanding community-based organizations working in this space.
Nominate organizations that are making a difference in the lives of immigrants and refugees — whether they’re delivering essential resources, advocating for policy change, or empowering individuals to rebuild and thrive. We want to celebrate the organizations leading the way in creating a more compassionate and welcoming world.
Head to our Instagram to nominate now!

FAQS
To nominate an organization, simply tag the organization or comment their name below the “Nominations Open” post on the @elevateprize Instagram.
ANYONE can make a nomination for the Elevate Prize GET LOUD Award unless you work for The Elevate Prize Foundation (we think that would be a little too insider-y). Nominate an organization whose work you believe in, or nominate your OWN organization!
This award is designed to uplift community-based organizations who have an annual budget under 1 million dollars and are a certified 501c3 or public charity.
Organizations can be nominated infinite times, but that won’t impact judging. Winners will be chosen by the Elevate team regardless of number of nominations, based on their mission, budget, and impact.
Topics are chosen based on suggestions from our community, time of year, current events, or by the Elevate team.
