Catalyst Now Awards

Celebrating Donors For Systemic Change

The solutions and real-world impact exist, but the right people, resources, and systems are not yet aligned. Each year, the Catalyst Now Awards celebrate the allies, funders, and co-creators who bridge that gap between solutions and alignment, recognising social innovators who understand that systems change demands more than traditional funding.

Leader in Trust

This award celebrates individuals and organizations that support evolving paths to systems change and prepare for long-term engagement. It recognizes funders who relinquish control through multi-year, unrestricted funding.
