For almost 50 years, B’nai B’rith has presented awards recognizing the accomplishments of key community and business leaders who represent a wide sphere of commitments and endeavors. These exceptional individuals are honored in recognition of enlightened civic concern, philanthropic leadership and commitment to excellence.
B’nai B’rith International Humanitarian Awards highlight the outstanding work of individuals across the globe that set the standards for community involvement and bettering the lives of people throughout the world. Recipients of the Humanitarian Awards have each shown a history of dedicated leadership through a commitment to the communities they serve. Our nominating committee consists of members from the local B’nai B’rith chapters, the International Board of Governors and former honorees from their community. B’nai B’rith’s annual presentation of this award in the Washington, DC community each year is a highlight for our members, board and constituents.
