MAKING
GOOD FAMOUS.
Founded by Joseph Deitch in 2019, the Elevate Prize Foundation is a global non-profit that empowers social entrepreneurs and activists by providing them with the resources they need to amplify their impact.
Our goal
To Make Good Famous – so that people can find, follow and celebrate impact leaders – and get inspired to drive progress themselves
“In a world where actors, musicians, sports players and social media stars are celebrities, but social good heroes are unknown, it’s time for change.”
– Joseph Deitch,
founder of The Elevate Prize Foundation
Currently, we have four main initiatives:
Elevate stands out for our investment in creating more visibility for social-change leaders, and for our trust-based philanthropy, which provides unrestricted funding so organizations can decide where best to use their grants.
CHANGING THE WAY
WE CHANGE THE WORLD.
AMPLIFY
the impact of innovators, activists and problem-solvers
DRIVE
change, together, to ignite a chain reaction of goodness to
MAKE
good famous
First, we want to find extraordinary, purpose-driven leaders, innovators, activists and risk-takers all over the world – the best of the best – and provide them with resources and support to dramatically increase their impact.
The second part is where the magic really happens. We want to share the stories of these changemakers – whether they are focused on equality, education, economic issues or are addressing other critical needs – and showcase their enormous energy, talent, and passion with the rest of the world.
Ultimately, the goal is to make good famous! To ignite a chain reaction of giving and goodness on a global scale. The world is looking for heroes. And I believe we need them, now, more than ever.
– JOSEPH DEITCH
