Meet the 2024 Bush Prize winners!

Bush Prize winners are doing big things in partnership with their communities.

DATE

October 22, 2024

Every year we celebrate organizations that are highly valued in communities across the region with the Bush Prize. Today, along with our community grant partners, we’re excited to announce the 2024 Bush Prize winners!

Bush Prize winners are doing big things in partnership with their communities. They have a strong track record of successful community problem solving and work collaboratively to make our region better for everyone.

The Prize gives each organization flexible funding of up to $500,000 to further their work in whatever way they see fit. They can build up reserves, test that next big idea or anything else that would best support their ongoing work.

One of our operating values is to “work beyond ourselves,” which includes the commitment to both lead and follow. We’re following the good work of our grant partners who operate each Bush Prize throughout the region and select the winning organizations and finalists in their communities.

Congrats to the Bush Prize winners and honorees! Learn more about each of the winners.
