Now,
the "Wei Jingsheng Chinese Democracy Champion Prize" has entered its
14th Year.
The
Wei Jingsheng Foundation wishes this annual prize to serve as a continued and
consistent encouragement to Chinese democracy advocates who have devoted
themselves to and contributed to the progress of Chinese democracy, despite the
suppression from the Communist government. Thus, the prize is designated mainly for democracy
advocators who are inside China.
The
annual announcement is made on December 5, the date of publication in 1978 of
the well-known article "The 5th Modernization - Democracy", by Mr.
Wei Jingsheng. This date was a
landmark for the Chinese democracy process. The prize was initiated with the encouragement and financial
support of an anonymous donor who promised an essential $1,000.00 annually as
seed money for it. We encourage
more donors to contribute to this award specifically. (Tax-exempt receipts will be provided
for your federal tax deduction purposes, as well as your choice of public
acknowledgment or remaining anonymous.)
Since
the establishment of this prize, the Wei Jingsheng Foundation has received many
nominations, and much feedback and encouragement in this regard. We encourage the participation and
recommendations from our colleagues and friends as before.
If
you have a person or a group to nominate, please send the name, the
credentials, other possible referrals, methods of communication and other
details to us by midnight on Saturday, November 11, 2017 (US Eastern Time). The best way to reach us is via
e-mail. The contact e-mail address
is: hcp0411wjs@aol.com or HCP@weijingsheng.org. Please send plain text (no attachments and/or embedded
pictures) for a timely response.
