When it comes to promoting global harmony, not many individuals stand out like Jan Du Plain, the Chief Executive Officer of Du Plain Global Enterprises, Inc., and Embassy Liaison at the Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center, Washington DC. Her hard work and creative approaches have earned her numerous accolades, leading to her upcoming reception of the prestigious Torch Bearer Award from The Sri Chinmoy Oneness-Home Peace Run on April 25, 2024, in Chevy Chase, Maryland. 

The Peace Run initiative, founded by Sri Chinmoy in 1987, has been a symbol of unity and goodwill, passing a torch representing peace through over 160 countries for more than three decades. The Torch Bearer Award, previously granted to prominent personalities such as Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Billie Jean King, and Carl Lewis, among others, acknowledges individuals whose actions have deeply impacted humanity.

The history of the Peace Run is marked by iconic moments reflecting its universal message of peace and solidarity. From notable figures like Mother Teresa and Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II lighting Beacons of Peace using the Peace Run Torch to blessings bestowed by Pope John Paul II and Pope Francis, the run has garnered global recognition.

Having served as a Public Relations Specialist at the National Women’s History Museum, an Embassy Liaison at Cultural Tourism DC, a Director of Public Relations at WETA, and a Public Relations Director at Ford’s Theatre, Jan brings a wealth of expertise in promoting cultural understanding and peaceful initiatives. Therefore, making it a truly well-deserved recognition for Jan.  

The Sri Chinmoy Oneness-Home Peace Run continues to engage communities worldwide in actively pursuing peace. Through relay runs and educational initiatives, it inspires individuals of all ages to champion peace and understanding.
