About the foundation

World of Children is a nonprofit organization dedicated to recognizing and supporting individuals who serve vulnerable children worldwide. Founded in 1998 by Harry Leibowitz and Kay Isaacson-Leibowitz, it was established to fill a gap in traditional philanthropy by honoring those who work directly with children in need, often in obscurity. The organization operates as a global awards program, identifying and funding heroes who provide education, healthcare, and safety to children facing adversity. Its core mission is to elevate these leaders, providing financial support and public recognition to amplify their impact.

Application guidance

Nominations for the World of Children Awards are accepted annually and are open to individuals (not organizations) who have made significant contributions to children's welfare. The process is highly selective, requiring detailed documentation of the nominee's work, impact metrics, and financial transparency. Prospective nominators should prepare a comprehensive case that demonstrates sustained commitment, innovation, and measurable outcomes. It is advisable to review past awardees to understand the caliber of work recognized. The organization prioritizes grassroots leaders and social entrepreneurs; artists working in social practice may find alignment if their work directly benefits children. Deadlines and categories vary, so consult the website for current calls.
