IHEU Member Organization Atheist Centre has been honoured with the Freidenker Award at the recent Atheist Alliance International Convention held in Kansas City, Missouri, USA on April 14-16, 2006.
The Award was named for the Freethinking German Immigrants who came to Missouri in 1848 and settled in Hermann, Missouri and other places in the US. They were the critical force in keeping Missouri in the Union during the Civil War in the States.
Ms. Barbara Stocker of the St. Louis Rationalist Society accepted the award on behalf of Atheist Centre.
