The third annual Muhammad Ali Humanitarian Awards: An Evening to Celebrate Greatness will take place on Saturday, September 19, 2015 in Louisville, Kentucky at the Marriott Louisville Downtown.
This charitable event of celebration and recognition will honor individuals around the world who have made significant contributions toward the attainment of peace, social justice, or other positive actions pertaining to human or social capital.
Awardees include Harry Belafonte, Geena Davis, Rose Mapendo, and Dr. Andy Moore from Lexington, Kentucky—in addition to six young awardees from around the world who are 30 years and under. Four-time Olympic Gold Medal Winner, Janet Evans, will host the event.
This event benefits the Muhammad Ali Center, a multicultural center with award-winning exhibits dedicated to the life and legacy of Muhammad Ali. The museum captures the inspiration derived from the story of Muhammad Ali’s incredible life and the six core principles that have fueled his journey. The mission of the Muhammad Ali Center is to preserve and share the legacy and ideals of Muhammad Ali, to promote respect, hope, and understanding, and to inspire adults and children everywhere to be a great as they can be. The Center’s primary focus areas are: Education, Gender Equity, and Global Citizenship. The Muhammad Ali Center, a 501(c)3 corporation, was co-founded by Muhammad Ali and his wife Lonnie in their hometown of Louisville, Kentucky.
The Muhammad Ali Humanitarian Awards celebrates both young and seasoned humanitarians and helps to raise awareness of their humanitarian efforts while inspiring others to make a change in their own communities. These awards are unique because they are inspired by Muhammad’s six core principles—confidence, conviction, dedication, giving, respect, and spirituality—and will help ensure that today’s young people have role models they can look up to and be empowered by to generate positive impact in their own communities.
