YMCA Peace Medallion

2011 YMCA Peace Medallion Recipient

As part of Peace Week, the YMCA awards Peace Medallions to remarkable individuals or groups who are taking action and inspiring others to find peaceful solutions to the challenges faced by communities. Peace Medallion recipients can be artists, environmentalists, activists, parents, students, community groups and so on. But the thing they all have in common is that they passionately contribute their time and talent to making local and global communities more peaceful places to live.
