YAF’s National Journalism Center Reveals 2025 Dao Prize Finalists

September 30, 2025

The National Journalism Center — a project of Young America’s Foundation — and the Dao Feng and Angela Foundation are pleased to announce finalists for the 2025 Dao Prize for Excellence in Investigative Journalism.

Prizes will be awarded for four categories: best local journalism, best multimedia reporting, best “DOGE” reporting on government waste, and best overall reporting or series. Submissions are judged according to five criteria: investigative depth, public interest, fairness and accuracy, style, and impact.

The winner for best overall reporting or series will receive a $100,000 prize and two submissions will win $10,000 each as runners-up. One submission will win $10,000 in the local category, one will win $10,000 in the multimedia category, and one will win $30,000 for the special annual prize–this year highlighting the best “DOGE” reporting on government waste.

Winners will be announced at the third annual Dao Prize Gala on November 19 held at The Waldorf-Astoria in Washington, D.C.
