ST. GEORGE — Select Health recently announced it has officially opened the application process for the Select Health Awards, an award recognizing organizations dedicated to enhancing health and well-being within their communities.
This year, the awards will select 10 outstanding organizations from each of the following three service areas including Utah, Idaho and Clark County, Nevada. Each recipient will be awarded $5,000 to further support their programs and initiatives, according to the news release.
In commemoration of Select Health’s 25th anniversary, the Select Health Awards program was launched in 2008. Since its inception, Select Health has contributed more than $1 million through this program to support community organizations, highlighting its longstanding commitment to community well-being.
These awards highlight the impactful work undertaken by organizations committed to building strong communities and aiding those in need.
Over the last 16 years, the Select Health Awards have acknowledged a diverse range of organizations championing critical causes addressing access to health care, food security, housing stability, improving physical and mental well-being, therapy and support services for abuse survivors, artistic programs for children and assisting organizations delivering health services, training and education to underserved populations.
“Select Health’s mission is to help people live the healthiest lives possible and these awards enable us to acknowledge and provide additional resources to local organizations who share our vision, empowering them to continue their important work and positive impact,” Rob Hitchcock, Select Health president and CEO, said in the news release. “The exceptional work these organizations undertake is truly amazing, and we remain committed to aiding them in advancing their missions through these awards.”
Applications for the Select Health Awards are open through Feb. 29, or until 200 submissions for each state have been received. Select Health invites all eligible organizations to apply for the award at selecthealthawards.org.
