Kubota Canada contest to recognize outstanding Canadians
Kubota Canada Ltd., in partnership with the Canadian Hockey League (CHL), has launched its sixth annual Community Hero contest, encouraging Canadians across the country to nominate heroes in their communities for a chance to win $25,000 for a charity of their choice.
The contest serves as a platform to celebrate and bring attention to the numerous Canadians who make a positive impact in their respective communities’ day in and day out. Nominations are open to anyone who goes above and beyond to elevate their own community, from volunteers and healthcare workers to sports coaches and everyone in between.
“Giving back to your community can be a thankless and tireless job, and from all of the nominations we’ve received in previous years, we know there are so many Canadians who deserve recognition for their efforts,” said Steve Sweetnam, marketing director at Kubota Canada. “We are thrilled to be able to provide a platform to celebrate some of these great Canadians and look forward to reviewing all of the amazing and uplifting stories from this year’s nominations.”
This year, the grand prize winner will be awarded with a $25,000 donation to a charity of their choice, with two runners-up receiving $5,000 donations each to go towards their own chosen charitable initiatives.
“The CHL is incredibly proud of the legacy built by the Community Hero contest and we are excited to once again be teaming up with Kubota Canada to celebrate deserving local heroes across the country,” said Dan Mackenzie, CHL president. “As a national league with teams from coast to coast, we are proud of our deep-running community roots and this contest serves as an excellent opportunity to thank those who do so much behind the scenes to effect change in their own backyards.”
Kubota and its over 130 dealers and 51 participating CHL teams have strong ties to their communities across Canada and continue to strengthen local bonds by showcasing people who help and support their towns. Winners will be announced in mid-December.
