Seniors of Distinction Awards

We can all think of a senior who has made a difference in our lives. Every day, seniors  make an impact in our community – they are mentors, volunteers, role models and loved ones, and they deserve to be recognized for all they do. 

Nominations are now open for AgeCare’s 2024 Seniors of Distinction Awards. This year, we are recognizing seniors across BC’s lower mainland, from Squamish through to Hope.

Recognizing Standout Seniors

The Seniors of Distinction Awards is an occasion to recognize seniors and their amazing accomplishments, achievements, and the valuable contributions they have made, and continue to make, in our communities, workplaces, and homes.

AgeCare is excited to bring back the Seniors of Distinctions Awards for another year to the Lower Mainland!
