ACHA Awards

Every year Association for Communal Harmony (ACHA) invites nominations for the following ACHA awards.

1. ACHA STAR AWARD is given to individuals and organizations, which have performed meritorious work in promotion of peace and communal harmony and/or who have performed a valuable service for ACHA. Nominees as well as the nominators may be from any part of the world, but preference is given to those who are South Asians and whose work is focused on South Asia and South Asians.

2. MAKE A DIFFERENCE AWARD is meant for individuals and organizations located in the Portland (Oregon)-Vancouver (Washington) Metropolitan Area, who have made a difference for the better, in their community.

ACHA Awards do not have any financial reward. They have been set up only to recognize some of the unsung heroes in the local community and South Asian peace and harmony.
