About the Awards

In honor of the anniversary of Anne Frank’s 84th birthday on June 12, 2013, The Anne Frank Center USA will honor Anne’s effort to improve the world with awards to citizens and educators and scholarships to students who have demonstrated outstanding commitments to take a stand against discrimination of all kinds.

This commitment may be portrayed through participation in programs offering conflict resolution, Holocaust education, peer education or community service. Judging is by committee and is based on a combination of a personal essay, letters of support and documentation.

The AFC is proud of the many innovative and committed applicants whose actions, teachings, programs and organizations help make a better world. It is our wish that every applicant continue with their important work.

Please plan to join us at this year’s Gala and Award Ceremony.
