The United Way & Okotoks Partnership Committee hosted Okotoks’ Got Talent, a family‑friendly talent show and fundraiser, on Friday, March 6, 2026, at the Viking Rental Centre. The evening brought the community together to celebrate local talent, with all funds raised supporting local organizations that make a difference right here in our community.
Thanks to the incredible support of our performers, volunteers, and the 475 community members who came out to cheer them on, the event raised $24,000 for local non‑profits delivering programs that address the social needs of Okotoks and Area residents. Beyond fundraising, Okotoks’ Got Talent showcased our vibrant arts community, raised awareness of local social programs and resources, and created a fun, welcoming space for the community to connect and celebrate together.
