Nomination Form for Ruth Kelly Award

Get ready to share your incredible story! The prestigious Ruth Kelly Award seeks to honor remarkable individuals who empower others, dare to dream big, and ignite action. 

This award is not about career achievements or expertise; it's all about four inspiring categories:

- Mentor
- Inspiration
- Champion
- Dreamer

A dynamic mentor to many young people in Alberta, Ruth left an indelible mark through her influential work at Venture Publishing. Her amazing story deserves to be told, but this award isn't focused on her career. Instead, let's celebrate the powerful impact she made by empowering others to believe in themselves and pursue their dreams.

We are looking for extraordinary individuals in Alberta who embody these qualities.
