Selection criteria:
- Selected organizations must have 501(c)3 status with the IRS.

- Generally, selected organizations will not be nonprofits with annual operating budgets of $750,000 and above. Special consideration may be given on a case by case basis.
- Selected organizations must provide unique services that serve a niche in the community or region, and are not duplicated by other, stable and effective organizations.
- Selected organizations should have at least a brief history of stability and success at what they do.
- The annual list of selected organizations must attempt to span a wide spectrum of social justice issues, as to not congregate all contributions in one issue area.

It is beneficial if a representative of the nominee can be present to answer questions at our nominating meeting in November.
