+# Jean-Thierry Kéchichian Community Award
+
+After the passing of our beloved [Jean-Thierry](../jean-thierry/README.md) to honor him, keep his memory alive, and foremost, inspire people to do good work for the community, we launched an award named after him for exceptional community members.
+
+Every year, the community votes on who has done the most for Orchard Core. This can entail activities in the form of e.g. code contributions (including documentation), help under issues and discussion, evangelization outreach, community management, or anything else. However, it needs to be public and tangible.
+
+After a public round of nominations, the community votes on the nominees secretly. The winner is then announced at the annual Orchard Harvest conference.
+
+## Perks of winning the Jean-Thierry Kéchichian Community Award

+
+## Organizing the Jean-Thierry Kéchichian Community Award
+
+This is how we organize the Jean-Thierry Kéchichian Community Award:
+
+- Announce it during the weekly meeting, the discussion board, and the issue tracker with a pinned issue.
+- Ask community members to nominate people in public under the discussion board for a set amount of time, like two weeks.
+- Collect votes for the top nominees privately, e.g. via Microsoft 365 Forms.
+- Announce the winner at Orchard Harvest, during the keynote.
