Six seasons of celebrating Ethiopians whose integrity, kindness, service, and positive action inspire their communities.
Gratitude Celebration began in 2021 as an annual recognition movement honoring people whose service and example create positive social change.
Each June 7 (Ginbot 30), the movement brings gratitude into public life through recognition, storytelling, community participation, and celebration.
Honorees are selected for meaningful impact, integrity, lasting community influence, innovation, inclusion, advocacy, and the ability to inspire others.
