NEW YORK, July 9, 2024 ~ The Algernon Sydney Sullivan Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to honoring individuals who demonstrate noble character and selfless service, has announced the upcoming celebration of the 100th anniversary of the Sullivan Awards. The event will take place on September 20, 2024 at The Penn Club New York and will mark a century of recognizing outstanding individuals across the Foundation's network of over 70 partner schools.
The celebration will span over the next three years and will focus on the first eleven schools to present the award. Each of these schools will host their own celebration events starting in the spring of 2025.
The Sullivan Awards were established in New York City, where Algernon Sydney Sullivan co-founded the prestigious law firm Sullivan & Cromwell in 1879. The awards were first presented by the New York Southern Society, a group co-founded by Mr. Sullivan himself. Following his death, a committee that included former U.S. President Grover Cleveland initiated the awards to honor Mr. Sullivan's legacy of humanitarian service.

The Sullivan Award is reserved for individuals who embody the spirit of service above self and are recognized for their contributions to their communities with integrity and compassion. It is considered one of the most prestigious accolades given to graduating seniors within the Sullivan Network of colleges and universities.
Steve McDavid, president of the Sullivan Foundation, expressed his excitement for this milestone event stating, "The centennial celebration of the Sullivan Awards marks a significant milestone in recognizing individuals who embody the spirit of service and leadership that Algernon Sydney Sullivan exemplified." He also added that they are looking forward to celebrating this legacy where it all began - in New York City - and continuing to honor it at their partner schools that have been presenting these awards for a century.
The centennial celebration will begin in New York City as a tribute to Mr. Sullivan's contributions to both law and philanthropy. The event will bring together leaders from the expansive network of Sullivan partner schools and dignitaries from Sullivan & Cromwell to reflect on the impact of the awards over the past 100 years.
