HealthWeek, sponsored by Avedis Foundation, is our annual kickoff to a healthy summer. This highly anticipated week features a variety of family-friendly events for all ages, designed to encourage healthy habits and active lifestyles. Through a collaborative effort with local nonprofit partners, HealthWeek aims to support, inspire, and enhance wellness across the entire community.
Avedis Foundation established the Michelle Briggs “We’re Here for Good” Service Award to recognize an individual who has provided exemplary service above and beyond their vocation or profession to Pottawatomie County and/ or the surrounding communities of Seminole, Meeker, Chandler, Prague, and Little Axe.
The award recipient will designate an organization that meets the foundation’s selection criteria to receive a $5,000 discretionary grant. The award will be presented May 28, 2026.
If you know someone whose dedication to service has improved the quality of life of our community, we encourage you to submit a nomination.
