Honouring excellence and inspiring achievement in community service and leadership

Premier John Horgan and Anne Giardini, Chair of the BC Achievement Foundation, named the recipients of the 19th annual Community Award recognizing twenty extraordinary British Columbians who build better, stronger and more resilient communities. The Community Award recipients were selected by an independent committee, whose 2022 members included Mayor Maja Tait of Sooke, Mayor Clara Reinhardt of Radium Hot Springs, and past recipients Aisha Amijee and Kal Dosanjh.

The 2022 Community Award recipients were recognized in a formal presentation ceremony held in Victoria, BC in the presence of the Honourable Janet Austin, OBC, Lieutenant Governor of British Columbia.
