WHO WE ARE

We are a different kind of international award — one granted by a Foundation unlike any other. We stand apart because we don’t simply fund the usual projects that most foundations support. Instead, we take an active, hands-on approach, working directly with young people to train and empower them and help shape their futures alongside them.
If you believe in ethical business and think that giving a meaningful job or opportunity is more impactful than a simple subsidy, this Foundation is for you. If you believe that teaching skills, fostering self-sufficiency, and creating well-being for yourself and others is the path to lasting change, then this Foundation is your Foundation.
We are more than an award — we are a launchpad for potential, a bridge to opportunity, and a catalyst for real impact.
We Reward Those Who Create Success and Development
We believe in the potential of all people — young or young at heart — who have the courage and determination to start anew. We believe in those who create opportunities, empower others, and drive success for the communities we support.
After 25 years, the TRUST DH INTERNATIONAL Award is evolving. While the story remains the same, the future is even more prestigious.
Starting in 2022, the award has been renamed, expanded, and its purpose enhanced to The Duke of Dijon’s Award.
This award celebrates visionaries, changemakers, and leaders — those who turn ambition into action and opportunities into lasting impact.
