The CLASSY Awards aren’t just a popularity contest—they focus on tangible action and results. The CLASSY Awards recognize and highlight the greatest philanthropic achievements—large and small—by individuals and organizations giving back to the community. Last year’s award winners rappelled off buildings to raise money, started orphanages for abused and neglected children in Tijuana, and built giant structures out of tens of thousands of cans to collect food donations. Get your supporters to share how you are giving back!

The 2nd Annual CLASSY Awards are hosted by StayClassy, the leader in social fundraising for nonprofits, and their partners: NBC Bay Area, NBC Chicago, NBC Los Angeles, NBC New York, NBC San Diego and NBC Washington.

If you have any questions, please email StayClassy at awards@stayclassy.org.
