In total, the award went to 32 local BIPOC nonprofit leaders. The organization's executive director stated the following: "a multicultural collaborative of 240-plus nonprofit executive directors across Washington State,"

Based on a press release, 20 leaders and the organizations they lead will receive $60,000 each to take three-month sabbaticals to cover their salary and benefits during that time. Other members will receive one-month sabbaticals on top of that.

Apparently, the people who receive these awards will also receive coaching about how to enjoy their time off and control their finances during their time off.

The press release also detailed how award winners would spend their time resting.

"This sabbatical will support me in healing from the trauma I have endured doing this work as an undocumented, queer woman of color during the most violent times of our generation. My vision is to show up for me as I have shown up for others," said Brenda Rodríguez Lopez from the Washington Immigrant Solidarity Network.
