In November of 2018, Canada Malting lost a close colleague and friend, Joe Dingley. Joe was with us for over 16 years and served as our Elevator Manager at Lyalta, Alberta. He was a dedicated employee who touched many peoples’ hearts with his compassion and empathy for others.

At the Calgary Christmas Party in 2018 we conducted a fundraiser that raised $4,000 including a matching amount from Canada Malting! In addition, the Calgary office sponsored a weight loss challenge that raised an additional $520. With this money, we decided we wanted to do something to celebrate Joe’s memory. As a result, Canada Malting created the Joe Dingley Memorial Scholarship Award!

We are pleased to announce that Carson Laschowski is the winner of the Joe Dingley Memorial Scholarship Award! Carson is the daughter of Calgary Barley Operator Marvin Laschowski. She is currently pursuing a Bachelors of Nursing at Mount Royal University. The committee was impressed with Carson’s application and her perseverance and persistence in the face of numerous challenges. She has also been nominated for the Tourism Calgary White Hat Award several times. We believe Carson to be an exceptional individual who is very deserving of this recognition.
