Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross founded the Ross Initiative in Sports for Equality (RISE) in 2015. Less than two years after the nonprofit was founded, Ross and RISE will receive a national honor.

Wednesday, it was announced that RISE will be given a Stuart Scott ENSPIRE Award at the third annual Sports Humanitarian Awards presented and sponsored by Bristol-Myers Squibb on Tuesday, July 11. The event will honor sports leagues, teams, individuals and people in the sports community that are using the power of sports to make a favorable impact on society.

“We are honored that RISE is a recipient of the Stuart Scott ENSPIRE Award, named after a man synonymous with bringing all walks of life together through the unifying power of sports,” Ross said in a statement released by the Dolphins. “I want to thank all of the players, sports executives and league officials who have united to make a positive impact around such an important issue.”

Founded in 2015, RISE is dedicated to unifying power of sports to improve race relations and drive social progress in communities. Since the beginning of RISE, it has reached more than 30,000 students, coaches and athletic staff.

Along with RISE, WWE Chief Brand Officer Stephanie McMahon and Orlando City Soccer Club of Major League Soccer also will be recognized with the Stuart Scott ENSPIRE Award in July.
