March 23, 2026
(Anchorage, Alaska) – Five Calista Corporation Shareholders have each won $500 cash prizes in the 2026 Calista Shares Contest.
Selected in a random drawing, the five winners are:
- Elizabeth D. Augline (Alakanuk, AK)
- Martina V. Landlord (Anchorage, AK)
- Henry M. Billy (Napakiak, AK)
- Grace U. Hoeldt (Marshall, AK)
- Denise Riley-Alexie (Anchorage, AK)
The Calista Shares Contest began February 5, 2026, and encouraged Calista Shareholders to protect their stock legacy by completing a Calista Stock Will or Life Estate Beneficiary form. These forms specify who should inherit Calista shares or unpaid distributions after a Shareholder passes away. Both forms remain available.
Calista Shareholders in the United States at least 18 years old who completed one or both forms by March 6, 2026, 5 p.m. Alaska Time, received an entry. Shareholders with either valid form on file prior to the contest were automatically entered.
“Quyana to the nearly 7,000 Shareholders who participated in this contest. We are happy to see them taking this important step to specify who will inherit their shares and/or receive any unpaid distributions,” said Thom Aparuk Leonard, Calista Corp. vice president of Corporate Affairs.
