Thus, seven recipients in boxing, fencing, artistic gymnastics, judo, karate, Olympic wrestling, and taekwondo received a $2,000 scholarship $ from Georges himself.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>This 6th edition of the GSP Foundation Scholarship Program awarded four academic excellence scholarships to student-athletes with academic results of 80 % and above, and three academic and sports success support scholarships encouraging the balance of studies and high-level sports.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u00abIt's important to me that my foundation renews its contribution to the FAEQ because I believe in their values and their mission to financially support athletes who absolutely must continue their studies to better prepare for their career transition. It's always a pleasure to meet these promising young talents in person, present them with their scholarships, listen to them talk about their academic and athletic journeys, and even spar a few moves on the mat,\u00bb emphasized Georges St-Pierre.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>For the past six years, the Athletes Foundation of Excellence has proudly partnered with Georges St-Pierre, recalls its president, Claude Chagnon. \u00abBeyond his international renown, it's Georges St-Pierre's authenticity that charms the student-athletes. His involvement goes far beyond the $2000 $ that scholarship recipients receive, if only through the confidence he places in them. In fact, he not only captivates the recipients each year, but us too!\u00bb<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-4\">\n<div><\/div>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pg\/FAEQuebec\/photos\/?tab=album&amp;album_id=2365725353455388\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Album photos<\/a><\/div>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/playlist?list=PLf5byLi8YErr9lC7Ldja3RdMBJVMnyGko\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Video gallery<\/a><\/div>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/fondationaleo.ca\/en\/Uploads\/Profils_Fondation_GSP___dec_2018_VFF.pdf\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Scholar Profiles\u00a0<\/a><\/div>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/console.virtualpaper.com\/dossiers_presse\/fondation-georges-st-pierre-2019\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Press kit\u00a0<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Montr\u00e9al, 6 d\u00e9cembre 2018 \u2014 Georges St-Pierre a annonc\u00e9 aujourd\u2019hui que la Fondation GSP renouvelait son partenariat avec la Fondation de l\u2019athl\u00e8te d\u2019excellence du Qu\u00e9bec (FAEQ) pour trois autres ann\u00e9es, de 2019 \u00e0 2021, pour un montant total de 45 000 $ \u00e0 raison de 15 000 $ par ann\u00e9e.
