Community Partnership
The Mutual of America Foundation Community Partnership Award recognizes outstanding nonprofit organizations in the United States that have shown exemplary leadership by facilitating partnerships with public, private or social sector leaders who are working together as equal partners, not as donors and recipients, to build a cohesive community that serves as a model for collaborating with others for the greater good.
Each year, the Mutual of America Foundation sponsors a national competition in which hundreds of organizations demonstrate the value of their partnership to the communities they serve, their ability to be replicated by others and their capacity to stimulate new approaches to addressing significant social issues.
An independent committee selects three organizations to receive the Community Partnership Award.
- The Thomas J. Moran Award is given to the national award-winning program and includes a documentary video about the program.
- The Frances R. Hesselbein Award is given to a partnership that is addressing social challenges in more than one community, or which demonstrates the potential to be replicated in other communities.
- The Social Impact Award is given to a partnership whose program is making a positive difference in its community, and has the potential to scale to increase its impact.
Since its inception in 1996, the Community Partnership Award has recognized 268 partnerships from cities and towns across America. Like so many of our clients working in the nonprofit community, Mutual of America is dedicated to having a direct, positive impact on society.
