We’re honored to share that American Mensa has received the Live Long & Prosper Tribute Award, which recognizes those who make extraordinary contributions to their communities and embody the values that Leonard Nimoy championed throughout his life.

Recipients are chosen for their commitment to making the world a better place, whether through scientific advancement, community service, autism advocacy, or promoting diversity and inclusion.

Not bad company to keep.

Nimoy championed curiosity, creativity, and the courage to think differently. Those aren’t just nice ideas. They’re the whole point. And this recognition tells us we’re doing something right.

We’ll take the honor. Then we’ll get back to the work of building a community where intelligence actually connects people. us.mensa.org/join/
