The Prize
The Millennium Candler Gala Prize
Matthew Middelthon, a descendant of Coca-Cola founder Asa G. Candler, founded the Millennium Candler Peace, Justice, and Millennium Gate Prizes to support the mission of the National Monuments Foundation, with gala proceeds funding its work.
Established in 2003 by Rodney Mims Cook, Jr., the Foundation creates self-sustaining landmarks of national and historical significance that promote peace education and civic engagement. Its projects include the World Athletes Monument (Prince of Wales Monument), Millennium Gate, Peace and Justice Gate, Buckhead Midtown Gate, Newington-Cropsey Museum of Art, Princess Royal Millennium Monument, John F. Kennedy Jr. Memorial, Rodney Cook Sr. Peace Park, and the Cyrus the Great statue.
