“I had the pleasure of spending my volunteer day helping out with a variety of activities at my daughter’s high school fundraiser, “Scona Initiative”. This 24-hour Bike-a-thon raised over $560,000.00 for the “Doctors without Borders campaign”, which is a humanitarian emergency medical organization that provides urgently needed health care directly to people who have been made vulnerable by crisis, conflict, disaster, or neglect and alleviate suffering in more than 65 countries around the world.

Thank you DynaLIFE, for contributing to this amazing fundraiser that I was so fortunate to be a part of, as an Ambassador for this great cause.”

At DynaLIFE, we are committed to our current and future employees, the successful management of our business, and the communities where we live, work, and contribute to. We are proud of all of our achievements, including being named one of Alberta's Top 75 Employers for the sixth consecutive year and one of Canada's Best Managed Companies for the eighth consecutive year. In celebration, DynaLIFE would like to once again give back to our community by offering two bursaries, the Roxanne Bunyan Bursary covers one year of the NAIT MLT program, and the Jeanne Irwin Bursary covers the entire NAIT MLA program. The bursaries were named in honour of former DynaLIFE Employees: Roxanne Bunyan who inspired DynaLIFE employees with her strong leadership skills and Jeanne Irwin who was a strong advocate for Medical Laboratory Assistants during her tenure at DynaLIFE.

“These bursaries not only reflect a lifetime of contribution to medical laboratory service but serve as a testament to the character and example each of these individuals set in defining for a generation what a Lab Professional means. There is no greater honor for that legacy than inspiring the generations of lab professionals to come.”- Jason Pincock CEO

The DynaLIFE Bursaries were created to provide two deserving students with the funding to assist in tuition fees to attend NAIT’s MLT and MLA Programs. The Bursaries are available to first and second year NAIT Medical Laboratory Students, Grade 12 Students and Adult Learners in good educational standing who are enrolled in the MLA or MLT Programs within the next calendar year.

Calgary-made blood test aims to improve breast cancer detection | CBC News University of Calgary scientists have developed a test they believe could improve breast cancer detection with just a teaspoon of blood, and they're now testing it on hundreds of women in Alberta and the U.K.

Alberta Innovates, the Alberta Cancer Foundation and DynaLIFE have partnered to fund $1.2 million for this next stage of evaluation for Syantra, the University of Calgary spin-off company that created a non-invasive blood test and is developing it for commercialization within the next two years. Syantra has partnered with the UCalgary for the Calgary arm of the clinical study.

Last year Alberta Innovates, the Alberta Cancer Foundation and DynaLIFE joined together to help commercialize Alberta-owned innovations that will detect cancer earlier and improve treatment for Albertans. The $2.5 million challenge is part of Alberta Innovates’ Alberta Small Business Innovation and Research Initiative (ASBIRI) program.

"The key to a sustainable health system is the courage to embrace constant change and improvement. Finding and implementing new health innovation is a challenge for all Albertans. DynaLIFE is very pleased to support research across our province like Syantra in Calgary who are looking to change the future of Breast Cancer Detection and Treatment. We are proud partners of the Alberta Cancer Foundation, Alberta Innovates, and Syantra in the goal of delivering this research to Albertans. As a private sector partner we can leverage our skills and resources with those of our public partners to rapidly bring innovation from the bench to the bedside."

It is with great honor that DynaLIFE is named amongst the leading companies, for the sixth consecutive year, as one of Alberta's Top Employers.

DynaLIFE is pleased to announce the selection of our 2019 Charity of Choice, WIN House! WIN House, previously known as Edmonton Women's Shelter, did not start as a shelter for women who had suffered abuse but rather a home for transient women. It was at the downtown Greyhound station that Daisy Wilson first noticed the growing number of transient women in Edmonton. In 1968 a group of 28 organizations met to discuss the growing problem of homeless women. An action committee was formed to establish a point of contact and referral for the women. In 1970 this storefront was expanded and an overnight emergency shelter was opened in the basement of All Saints Cathedral. The overnight shelter enabled the committee to keep better statistics and expand their understanding of the circumstances behind the women's situation. It was discovered that abuse had been a factor in many of the women's life. Based on these findings the committee adopted a mandate to serve women and children who had been victims of all forms of abuse.

As part of our core values, DynaLIFE believes that giving back to the community is an important part of our culture. To ensure fairness and equitable charitable donations, DynaLIFE created the Charity of Choice program. This program guides the selection and management of charitable commitments. Charity of Choice Program:

• Allocates corporate funds for program support
• Directs corporate charitable donation to a selected registered, non-profit organization
• Tailors fundraising efforts to the needs of the selected organization
• Ensures that past recipient organizations are not neglected at the end of the one year term

Once again, thank you to our volunteer CRSC members for leading this year’s election of Charity of Choice.
