Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island — The 2023 Canada Winter Games Host Society is excited to welcome four new organizations to its growing roster of sponsors: Amalgamated Dairies Limited (ADL), PEI Mutual Insurance Company, Office Interiors, and DALMAC. All four organizations were welcomed to the Canada Games family at a reception held today at The Rodd Charlottetown.
With a little over 14 months to go until the Canada Winter Games, momentum continues to build as companies from across Atlantic Canada are stepping up to show their support for the 2023 Games. Today’s announcement brings the 2023 Games’ total of confirmed sponsorship to 60 percent of the overall fundraising goal of $8 million.
In addition to receiving significant brand visibility throughout Games-time, each organization plans to leave a lasting impression with communities across PEI leading up to the 2023 Canada Games through strategic fan activations.
