Center for Tech and Civic Life Receives the 2020 Skoll Award for Social Entrepreneurship

We are thrilled to share that Center for Tech and Civic Life is one of five recipients of the 2020 Skoll Award for Social Entrepreneurship. A tremendous thank you to the Skoll Foundation for this recognition of CTCL’s impact to date, and investment in our potential.

The Skoll Award allows us to grow our work of connecting Americans with the information they need to become and remain civically engaged, and ensuring that our elections are more professional, inclusive, and secure.

Collaboration is in CTCL’s organizational DNA. We are so grateful to our staff, Board, advisors, and partners who work alongside us. The Skoll Award is also recognition of each of you.

Congratulations to the other 2020 Skoll Awardees ARMMAN, Glasswing International, The International Council on Clean Transportation, and The Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project.

About the Skoll Award

The Skoll Foundation presents the Skoll Awards for Social Entrepreneurship each year to a select group of social entrepreneurs whose innovations have already had significant, proven impact on some of the world’s most pressing problems, and invests directly in the promise of even greater impact at scale. By investing in organizations when an innovation is ripe for accelerated and scaled adoption, the Skoll Awards help unleash the full global potential and reach of social entrepreneurs.

Each Awardee receives a $1.5 million investment or core support grant from Skoll over three years to scale their work and increase their impact. They also gain leverage through their long-term participation in a global community of visionary leaders and innovators dedicated to solving the world’s most pressing problems.
