2025 Honens Honours Award Recipient

Helen Graham grew up in Vancouver, BC where her parents passionately supported their community, giving their time and treasure, as well as regularly opening their home to fundraising events in support of the arts and other charitable organizations.
Inspired by her parents’ generosity, Helen eventually forged her own path in philanthropy . For many years, she has supported several organizations close to her heart including the Banff Centre, the Rotary Club of Calgary, the School of Creative and Performing Arts, the Hotchkiss Brain Institute of the Cumming School of Medicine at the University of Calgary, and, with characteristic discernment and enthusiasm, the Honens International Piano Competition.
Helen delights in her capacity to elevate such meaningful pursuits in the city she loves and is deeply grateful to celebrate the success of Honens.
