- Promoting_Enduring_Peace abstract "Promoting Enduring Peace ("PEP") PEPeace.org is a pacifist organization and United Nations non-governmental organization (NGO) based in Connecticut USA. PEP was founded in 1952 by Dr. Jerome Davis to resist the ideology of endless aggression that characterized the Cold War, and was incorporated as a tax-exempt educational organization in 1958 and reincorporated as a 501(c)(3) charitable-educational organization in 2008. Its principal programs have been peace education, citizen diplomacy, and the awarding of the Gandhi Peace Award to recipients such as Eleanor Roosevelt, Cesar Chavez, and Daniel Ellsberg. PEP's peace education activities include publishing the daily peace news update PeaceNews.org, and co-sponsoring the daily environmental news update EnvironmentalHeadlines.org.Though PEP is a secular organization, its roots are in the Christian Left and it continues to cooperate with members of the progressive religious community. In its early years PEP was led by Davis and Dr. Roland Bainton, both Yale professors (Religion and Divinity School, respectively), and its executive directors were retired Christian ministers. Howard T. Frazier, the first president of the Consumer Federation of America, served as PEP's longest-serving Executive Director. He developed and conducted the programs and activities from 1978 until his death in 1997, with the assistance of his wife and, later, co-director Alice Zeigler Frazier.PEP is a membership organization, with "activist" (voting) and "supporting" (non-voting) members. Because assets have accumulated from decades of member donations sufficient to cover modest administrative costs, donations to PEP from individuals can be allocated entirely to programming.PEP's activities were interrupted from 2005 through 2007 when a few members affiliated with other groups attempted to have PEP dissolved so that its assets could be distributed to those groups. The attempt was frustrated by the Office of the Attorney General of Connecticut and a court judgment providing for the establishment of the Peace and Social Justice Fund at the Community Foundation for Greater New Haven, endowed by a portion of PEP's assets, to award grants for projects substantially similar to PEP's traditional activities (peace education, citizen diplomacy, and work toward a sustainable world peace). Groups seeking funds from PEP are referred to that Fund.".
