Good Life Awards 2026

The Good Life Awards are our heartfelt way of honoring six incredible community members who embody our mission of spreading positivity and inspiring growth across Northern Indiana. These individuals have generously shared their time, energy, and spirit to uplift others and enrich our region. This special event celebrates the power of good news and the impact of those who help bring our vision of a brighter, more connected world to life.

We will award our honorees this year at the South Shore Convention and Visitors Authority's Indiana Welcome Center on Wednesday, October 7, 2026, with an afternoon of appetizers and great company to create an enjoyable experience for all.

This year, we are also proud to celebrate the Positive Spark Awards, a tradition that began last year and beautifully extends the spirit of the Good Life Awards. What makes these honors so special is that the recipients are selected by previous Good Life Award winners, people who understand firsthand what it means to live a life of service and positive impact. It is goodness recognizing goodness, creating a ripple effect that continues to spread throughout our communities.
