The Claire Friedlander Family Foundation is proud to support the 12th Annual Long Island Imagine Awards scheduled for Wednesday, May 1, 2024, 6-10pm at the Crest Hollow Country Club, Woodbury, NY. The Long Island Imagine Awards was created as a way to showcase the nonprofit sector and all the good work that it does, as well as provide opportunities for deeper collaboration within the sector. The event serves as an opportunity to meet new people, discover new organizations doing business on Long Island, develop new relationships, and learn from the organizations that are being honored.
Long Island based nonprofits are invited to apply and compete against each other in 6 categories – Arts & Culture; Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, & Accessibility (DEIA); Innovation; Leadership Excellence; Rising Star; & Social Impact, with the winner in each category winning a $5,000 grant. In addition, the 24 finalists, 4 in each category, each received a professionally produced video, which was showcased the night of the event, and two free tickets to the event. Applications are due on November 27, 2023.
Foundation President Peter J. Klein states “As sponsors of the Arts & Culture Award, we honor the legacy of our founder, Claire Friedlander, and her love of all things artistic.” “Long Island has a vital arts community and we are very proud to help showcase and support their efforts, said Klein.
