What are the Integrity Awards?
Each participating Rotary Club in the Capital Region nominates an individual who promotes high ethical standards and raise awareness of Rotary ideals.  The purpose of these awards is to honour adult, non-Rotarian members of the community for their integrity as citizens.  An Un-Sung Hero. Each participating club recognizes one such individual at the event.  

Our Rotary Club joins others in the Edmonton region in recognizing non-Rotarians who have made exceptional contributions to their community in the spirit of the principles of Rotary. Nominations for Recipients were due March 31, 2022 and are no longer accepted.  This year there are a total of twelve Recipients from twelve local Rotary clubs.

The Integrity Awards Gala  is scheduled the evening of Tuesday May 17 2022 at the Chateau Lacombe Hotel.   This will be a hybrid event both in person and Zoom online.   Fees are $75 per person attending in person, $10 each online, $525 table of 8, $400 table of 6, $10 per vehicle parking after 6 pm payable at kiosk.

During World Immunization Week, 24-30 April, let’s advocate for polio eradication and the importance of vaccines to the health and well-being of our communities.

Vaccines are one of the greatest advances of modern medicine. They’re safe, effective, and save millions of lives each year. Our progress in the fight to end polio is proof that vaccines work.

The Global Polio Eradication Initiative estimates that the polio vaccine has saved more than 20 million children around the world from paralysis. We need to continue vaccinating children against polio, because as long as the poliovirus circulates anywhere, it is a threat everywhere.
