The Brooklyn Community Foundation Launches The Just Brooklyn Prize in Partnership with The Joe and Clara Tsai Foundation’s Social Justice Fund

The Just Brooklyn Prize, presented by The Social Justice Fund in partnership with Brooklyn Community Foundation, is awarded to five BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) changemakers annually who are dedicated to strengthening and building power within Brooklyn’s communities. Leaders are submitted for consideration through a public nomination process (April 10 – May 15, 2023) and chosen by a Selection Committee of distinguished Brooklynites. The $20,000 prize is awarded without restrictions, in honor of winners’ contributions to the borough in the pursuit of racial and social justice.

Call for Nominations

Nominations for the 2023 Just Brooklyn Prize are now open through May 15, 2023.

You may nominate yourself, nominate a colleague, or simply someone whom you admire–multiple submissions are allowed.
