Call for Applications - 2008 Leading Lights Awards  

The Leading Lights Diversity Awards celebrate exemplary leaders in the nonprofit sector whose demonstrated courage, innovation and commitment to diversity light a path to a more inclusive society. From enriching our lives through arts and culture to providing for basic human needs like food, clothing and housing; from great social movements like voting rights for women and African-Americans to protection of the environment, non-profits have often led the way to a more civil society.  It is in recognition of their pivotal leadership roles in our communities that NMCI is proud to recognize non-profit organizations for leadership in the area of diversity with the Leading Lights Diversity Awards.
