2010 Gusi Peace Prize Ceremony - Manila Philippines

  Nov 24 2010 in the presence of 10,000 dignitaries and guests in Manila, Philippines the Ceremony for the Gusi International Peace Prize was held.  We at the Foundation are so proud of Yank Barry, founder of Global Village Champions Foundation for his Award "Social Services, Philanthropy and International Humanitarianism"...quoted at the ceremonies as "The Man That Could End World Hunger"

In recognition of the excellent work of the Ambassador Barry Gusi, his wife Dr. Evelyn Gusi Yank gifted the poor children of the Philippines with 1 Million Meals


 "I share this honor with every person who volunteers to help others and ever wonders if anyone notices or cares. Never forget, at least two people care, you and the person you are helping. Invest some time in the people around you. Support your local food bank or volunteer at a shelter for people who need temporary help.... Share your resources and compassion. It will come back to you when you least expect it and need it"....Yank Barry 


 

An amazing group of leaders from around the World gathered to be recognized in their various fields . It is a humbling experience to receive this recognition as the 2010 Laureate for Social Services Philanthropy and International Humanitarianism . As the first Canadian to receive this honour I share this with all of Canada. (Yank Barry)
