Better Awards
BETTER AWARDS RECOGNISE PASSIONATE INDIVIDUALS, UNSEEN PIONEERS, THAT SOLVE PROBLEMS THROUGH CURIOSITY, CRAFTSMANSHIP AND A PROACTIVE SPIRIT.Our mission
‘Better Awards’ mission is to curate and spread stories of innovative individuals and initiatives that make the world a better place as much as possible. Unseen pioneers and unsung heroes deserve to be seen, recognised and supported. Together we can help them change our world.
How it works
Each month 10 world-changing nominees are running for the Better Awards of the month. The winners will be chosen by you! And not only by you but also by our monthly guest judges who influencers in their own field of expertise. All of the monthly winners will be ‘competing’ for the BIG Better Awards in January 2015. The ultimate winner will be granted time and expertise from creative directors, strategists, designers and social media managers that have worked for renowned international brands.
What we believe
If.. everyone on the planet shared a Better Idea daily, the world would be a better place. If… everyone would take action through donating their time, money or space being Better is inevitable.
