Philanthropy Awards 2022 - Emerging Leader Award

Emerging Leader in Philanthropy Award (2022)

The Emerging Leader in Philanthropy Award was established in 2021 by CMF and the Emerging Practitioners in Philanthropy (EPIP) Michigan Chapter. The award honors an emerging practitioner in the field for their demonstrated leadership, commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion and advocacy for social justice in their work. The award celebrates emerging leaders working in Michigan who have advanced connections in the field and shown support for peers in the emerging leader space. Emerging leaders include individuals from all career pathways, positions and ages with experience levels under 10 years.
