Suncor Energy's Petro-Canada brand introduces the Class of 2017

19.09.2017  |  Marketwired

All financial figures are in Canadian dollars


CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Sep 18, 2017) - Today, Petro-Canada, a Suncor business, announced the 2017 Fuelling Athletes and Coaching Excellence (FACE™) Program grant recipients. Every year, Petro-Canada selects fifty-five promising athletes from across Canada. These athletes and their coaches are awarded a $10,000 FACE grant to help them along their journey, with $5,000 going directly to the athlete and $5,000 to their coach. FACE grants are often used for training, equipment, coach education, and travel expenses for competitions.

Developed by Petro-Canada, the Canadian Olympic Committee (COC) and Canadian Paralympic Committee (CPC), and facilitated by their National Sport partners, the FACE Program supports up and coming athletes who are striving to represent Canada at the Olympic or Paralympic Games, but are not able to qualify for government funding. Since 1988, Petro-Canada has supported more than 2,900 Canadian athletes and their coaches by providing more than $10,000,000 in financial support.

"It is my privilege to welcome the Class of 2017 to the Petro-Canada FACE program," says Deborah Gullaher, vice president, Sales and Marketing, Suncor. "Each year I am reminded of the hard work and dedication of both the athletes and their coaches that are chosen. I am honoured that Petro-Canada is able to play a small part in their journey."
