Award Information

This year, MTN will again be awarding a total of R1 million to four non-profit organisations as follows:

A R300 000 award will be given to one NPO in each of the following categories that demonstrate excellence in M&E practices:
- Small NPO’s with a total annual income of less than R5 million
- Medium NPO’s with a total annual income greater than R5 million but less than R15 million

A bonus award of R100 000 will be made to one NPO that provides the best information with regards to Advanced Project Monitoring and Evaluation Practices.

The winners will be announced with the launch of the Trialogue Business in Society Handbook and can look forward to being profiled in the 2020 edition.

Criteria

Applicants must be registered non-profit organisations (NPOs) / public benefit organisations (PBOs).
Submissions must pertain to a specific project carried out by the non-profit organisation, and not to the organisation as a whole.
A maximum of one entry can be made by each organisation. If your organisation runs multiple projects, choose the one that you think has the best M&E practices.
As these are social awards, the project you enter must have a positive impact of people.
The project must have been running for a minimum of two years.
If you are selected as a winner, Trialogue will verify your organisation by reviewing the following documents:
- NPO registration / constitution
- SARS ITA34
- Latest audited financial statements If deemed necessary, a site visit to the NPO may also be conducted.
Information received in the entries will not be shared beyond Trialogue staff and the judges. However, the award winners will be profiled in the Trialogue Business in Society Handbook 2020 edition, and as such entrants accept that they will be profiled in the handbook.
Entries will be adjudicated based solely on the information contained in this form.
To ensure succinct responses, please use bullet points and stay within the word count limit.
Please ensure that the person completing this entry form has sufficient knowledge of both the selected project and M&E practices in your organisation.
