Eisner Prize Fellowship 2025-2026 for U.S. (up to $50,000)

Posted on: 17 Apr, 2025 Deadline: 16 May, 2025

Since 2011, the Eisner Foundation has awarded the Eisner Prize to honor people and organizations doing exceptional intergenerational work across the country. In this next phase in the evolution of the Eisner Prize, The Eisner Foundation is providing financial resources, networking opportunities, and the prestige of the Eisner Prize to leaders with new ideas and perspectives that will propel the field forward.

Eligibility Criteria for Eisner Prize Fellowship 2025-2026 for U.S. (up to $50,000)

Open to anyone in the United States working to innovate in the area of intergenerational connection - whether that be through research, programs, technology, or other efforts advancing the field. Young people, people of color, and those working with historically marginalized communities are particularly encouraged to apply.
Individuals based in the United States and affiliated with a 501(c)3 are welcome to apply, including students and those with a fiscal sponsor. Note that the fellowship is for individuals and not intended to serve as a
grantmaking program for nonprofits, so while nonprofit staff may apply and execute their project under the umbrella of their organization, the project proposed should be something new, envisioned and executed by the Fellow.
Co-leadership teams can apply, but note that the application is set up for individuals, so applicant teams will have to select one person as the main contact. The award funds will remain the same for each fellowship, even if it's awarded to a team.

Benefits of Eisner Prize Fellowship 2025-2026 for U.S. (up to $50,000)

For the 2025-26 cycle, Eisner Prize Fellowships will be awarded to 3-5 leaders in the intergenerational space, and each Fellow will receive a total of $50,000: a $10,000 stipend, and $40,000 to be used toward their particular intergenerational initiative.
