At least in the Washington, DC area, individual members of the local Harvard Club can choose to sponsor and pay for a book award at the high school of their choice. As noted by others, the school then selects the winner each year. As long as someone sponsors the award for the particular school in question, the award will be made from the juniors at that school.

Thus, it’s strictly a school-level award.

If the Harvard folks in a particular region like to gather up all the individual school winners and throw a party for them, that would be regional celebration of the award, not a regional award.
