Montreal, March 29, 2023 \u2013<\/strong> The Al\u00e9o Foundation is proud to celebrate its long-standing, close and fruitful partnership with National Bank, which hosted the 31st on Wednesdaye<\/sup> edition of the National Bank Scholarship Program. A total of 37 student-athletes received individual scholarships with a combined value of 130,000 $.<\/p>\n

The 2023 cohort gathered and had the honor of participating in a ceremony at the National Bank headquarters for the occasion. This was the first awards ceremony for the Program since the name change of the Al\u00e9o Foundation (formerly the Fondation de l'athl\u00e8te d'excellence).<\/p>\n

In the presence of Patrick Charlebois<\/strong>, Senior Wealth Management Advisor and Portfolio Manager at National Bank and runner, the recipients received congratulations for their exceptional achievements and their commitment to their studies and their sport. The event was a unique opportunity for student-athletes to gather, thus creating a strong and inspiring community. Year after year, the Al\u00e9o Foundation and National Bank look forward to seeing the recipients continue to excel on the sports fields and in their higher education.<\/p>\n

The host Charles-Antoine Sinotte<\/strong>, columnist for Hi Hello<\/em> and former Foundation scholarship recipient, hosted the ceremony.<\/p>\n

Among the hundreds of student-athletes supported by National Bank in recent years, some have particularly distinguished themselves on the international stage, starting with Mika\u00ebl Kingsbury<\/strong>, double world champion in 2019, 2021 and 2023. Olympic athletes Jules Burnotte<\/strong> and Antoine Cyr<\/strong> are also part of this group, just like Emy Legault, <\/strong>bronze medalist at the last Americas Triathlon Championships.<\/p>\n

In their own words:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00abNational Bank has played a fundamental role over the years by supporting the Foundation in carrying out its mission. Its unwavering support over the past thirty years has helped support hundreds of promising athletes while building the Foundation's reputation and credibility. We are very grateful for this commitment and, to this end, are very proud to confer the title of \u201cFounding Partner\u201d to National Bank.\u00bb<\/p>\n

\u2013 Martin Lavigne, President of the Al\u00e9o Foundation<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00ab31e<\/sup> edition of the program once again demonstrates the unwavering, effective, and loyal support as well as the commitment of National Bank to athletes throughout the province. The desire to support student-athletes from all regions in their pursuit of personal fulfillment and well-being in performance remains a priority for the Bank.\u00bb<\/p>\n

New name, new image, same mission!<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Foundation for Athletic Excellence (FAEQ) has adopted a new name and visual identity: AL\u00c9O \u2013 Propelling the athlete beyond sport<\/strong>. This change aims to further highlight its personalized approach where overall well-being<\/strong> and the well-being in performance<\/strong> its scholarship holders are at the center of its actions.<\/p>\n
