overview

The Carnegie Medal of Philanthropy seeks to inspire a culture of giving by recognizing outstanding philanthropists who reflect the values of Andrew Carnegie and his philosophy of giving—that the surplus wealth of the few should be administered “for the good of the people.”

Each year eight individuals receive the honor presented at a gala event.

opticnerve™ partnered with Phil&Co. to produce a tribute film, narrated by Tina Fey, for each honoree in addition to this overview film telling the story of the award.
