The American Red Cross of Alaska is pleased to share the 2023 Real Heroes Awards with you; a showcase of Alaskan heroes doing what they do best – showing us that anybody can make a difference in the lives of others, either by saving a life one day or tirelessly working each and every day for the benefit of Alaskan communities.

Each year for the past 23 years, we have gathered for a Real Heroes event and celebrated the outstanding members of our community. We have captured the inspirational stories of heroes in 10 different categories to share with you! At our upcoming reception, you will also hear from our award sponsors, learn important preparedness tips, and hear more about the lifesaving work of the Red Cross.
