Winner
Lime Connect (Lime) is a global not-for-profit organization focused on rebranding disability through achievement — providing the largest network of high-potential individuals with disabilities (PWD) in the world with tools, self-confidence and connections to achieve their dreams; and in turn, supporting corporations in empowering the success of disabled employees.
Lime’s work is changing lives, but not enough of them. To scale programs and services and reach more individuals, a new online platform is being launched. The platform will be established as the go-to resource for careers, education and community in the disability talent space; and benefit people with disabilities, employers, universities, and the public at large, regardless of location. This work will lead companies of all sizes, industries and locales to fully value and seek the broad range of strengths and talents that can be found in employees with disabilities.
