Nominations open for Lethbridge Mighty Neighbours
Lethbridge is accepting nominations for Mighty Neighbours throughout the summer.
The City of Lethbridge is looking for a few good mighty neighbours.
Nominations are now being accepted by the city identifying the 'unsung heroes among us – the neighbours whose small but mighty actions help make our neighborhoods friendlier, safer and more welcoming for everyone,' according to the city's website.
It's the sequel to a program that started in 2024 and produced a lot of responses.
'After a successful launch in 2024, we continued the program through the summer and again this past winter,' said Lethbridge transportation communications strategist Heather Gowland, in a media release. 'We saw firsthand how much people appreciate their neighbours, so we knew we had to keep it going another year.'
The summer 2025 campaign is spotlighting everyday activities that make a big difference: picking up litter, cleaning out local gutters, and being a responsible pet owner.
'Summer tends to bring out the best in community spirit,' said Lethbridge parks community coordinator Ashley Walker. 'It's the perfect time to highlight the small acts of kindness that help our neighbourhoods thrive.'
To nominate a Mighty Neighbour from now through the end of September, go here.
Each month a nomination will be randomly chosen, giving the nominator a chance to share their story with local news and on city social media. The nominator will also receive a small gift of recognition to share with their nominee.
'We look forward to hearing about the everyday heroes who make their neighbourhoods mighty good places to live-one good deed at a time,' said Walker.
