Each athlete will serve as an ambassador for P&G brands and will be integrated across various marketing channels including advertising, in-store promotions, public relations, digital and social media.

“The Canadian Olympic Committee is pleased to partner with P&G as they continue to help make a lasting difference for athletes, moms and families in Canada and around the world,” said Marcel Aubut, President, Canadian Olympic Committee. “We appreciate their continued support of Canadian athletes on their journeys to London 2012.”

Globally, P&G will support 200 athletes, the largest group ever sponsored by an Olympic partner, and is committed to support the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and Canadian Olympic Committee (COC) for the next ten years.

“We are committed to being the best partner the Olympic Movement has ever had,” said Thom C. Lachman, President, Procter & Gamble Canada. “Athletes inspire us with their dedication to perform at their best every day and their commitment to excellence, which is why we are extremely proud to support and champion these nine world class athletes.”

Canadians from coast to coast can share in the Olympic Games spirit leading up to London 2012 and beyond, and stay up-to-date with the athletes’ progress by visiting the Thank You Mom Facebook page,

As part of its global Olympic Games sponsorship, P&G is also committed to honour the moms of athletes around the world through its “Thank You Mom” campaign, which celebrates every mom who does whatever it takes to help make her kid’s life the best it can be. Through this program, P&G will help the moms of Canada’s Olympic and Paralympic teams attend the Olympic Games to see their children compete or stay connected to their children throughout the Olympic Games via technology. At the Canada Olympic House on-site in London, moms, athletes and families will be able to find a “home away from home” and enjoy amenities like beauty treatments and laundry services. For more information on P&G’s Thank You Mom campaign,  Procter & Gamble – CoverGirl’s parent company – announced the sponsorship on Thursday.  “CoverGirl is proud to support Mary Spencer to help celebrate the power and strength in beauty,” said the company in press release.
