For the past 25 years, community and nonprofit leaders in Middle Tennessee have gathered together for a night of recognition and celebration at the Center for Nonprofit Management’s Salute to Excellence. Also known as the "Grammys" for nonprofits, Salute to Excellence is the largest nonprofit awards ceremony in the country.
Salute to Excellence brings together more than 1,100 local business, community, and nonprofit leaders as they honor organizations in 13 distinct categories of service.
Finalists in each category will receive recognition for their ongoing hard work in the community, and the night’s winning organizations will take home cash prizes totaling $250,000.
