Each year since 2001, the Manhattan Institute, in conjunction with a committee of distinguished scholars, practitioners, and foundation leaders, selects individuals who have originated and effectively implemented a nonprofit organization providing direct services to those in need. In keeping with the social entrepreneurship program's emphasis on the vitality of American civil society, the award is directed toward those with original ideas brought to fruition with predominantly private support, rather than in response to government grant programs.
Below are a list of organizations recognized by the Manhattan Institute
