“It’s something that not very many people from here have had so I guess that is the posy in my bonnet. I am sure there were other people that were equally deserving as I was…but I am glad to receive it.”

Jan Olesko, president of the Prince Albert and District Ukrainian Cultural and Heritage Club, said Malec was a very deserving recipient for the award. She said she is very proud of all of this year’s recipients.

“Of course I am significantly proud and also proud that our heritage is being recognized by such exemplary people,” she said.

Brighton Stefanyshyn was another Prince Albert resident awarded for her achievements. She received the community recognition youth achievement award.

David Dutchak of Blaine Lake was also recognized for his help in leading the Ambulances for Ukraine humanitarian project. That project saw the delivery of four ambulances to the Ukraine including one from Prince Albert Parkland Ambulance.
