The Conrad N. Hilton Foundation is inviting nominations for the 2007 Conrad N. Hilton
Humanitarian Prize for organisations that have made “extraordinary contributions
toward alleviating human suffering anywhere in the world”. On offer is $1.5 million,
the world’s largest humanitarian award.
The award is presented annually to an established
nonprofit, charitable, or non-governmental organisation. It is not a grant based
on future goals, but an award for recent and past accomplishments.

The prize is open to organisations around the world, although nominated organisations
must have an operating budget larger than $500,000.

Nominations must be received or postmarked by 6 November 2006, and the 2007 prize
will be announced in Autumn 2007.
