| AKI RA WINS MANHAE PEACE PRIZE IN KOREA Inje, Republic of Korea Aki Ra received the prize Sunday, 12 August, 2012. The 16th Manhae Grand Prize, conferred by the Manhae Foundation, gives prizes in categories of peace, social service, academic excellence, art, literature and missionary work. The foundation was established to commemorate the work of Ven. Han Yong-un, a Buddhist monk, who devoted himself to the national independence and education movement during Japan’s colonial rule of Korea. Through 2011, Aki Ra's team has cleared approximately 1.1 million square meters and that has provided work for 10,000 people. Lee Sang-ki, a member of the jury who chose Aki as a winner, said his dedication to bringing change to people’s lives around him was highly recognized. The award included a cash prize of $44,000 which was donated to CSHD to help further the work of clearing landmines in Cambodia. It costs CSHD over $15,000 per month to field a team of 30 Cambodians, working to make their country safe. You can join in their work by donating. DONATE: WWW.LANDMINE-RELIEF-FUND.COM |
