Alberta Blue Cross opens 2026 Faces of Wellness nominations, grand prize $2,500
Nominations are open for Albertans seen as champions of wellness, with winners able to direct part of the prize money to a charity of their choice.
Alberta Blue Cross has launched its 2026 Faces of Wellness program, calling on Albertans to nominate individuals who promote wellness in areas such as mental health, inclusive spaces, or supporting others through lived experience.
Winners will receive a cash prize and the option to direct a donation to a charity of their choice, with the grand prize set at $2,500 plus a $1,000 charitable donation.
Brian Geislinger, senior vice-president of Corporate Relations and Community Engagement with Alberta Blue Cross, said last year's program drew almost 300 diverse nominations and applications from across the province.
The deadline to apply or submit a nomination is Oct. 29, with recipients to be announced in January. Details and entry information are available at facesofwellness.ca.
