2025 Diwali Stamp – The Power of One Awards

The United Nations General Assembly recognized the significance of Diwali in its resolution 69/250 in 2014. Diwali is the Hindu festival of lights celebrated every year, and it also represents the victory of "Good" over "Evil," and "Light" over "Darkness." It is an official holiday in many countries.

Thereafter, Diwali Foundation USA Inc. was established in 2017 to promote a peaceful and consensus-based process to achieve societal "Good," as befits the high hopes and ideals of humanity enshrined in the United Nations Charter.

The Foundation established "Diwali Stamp - The Power of One" Award to celebrate and highlight the important work done in a peaceful manner, especially at the United Nations.
