July 3, 2015 By Lena

It’s nice to have friends in clean places.

As I shared in a previous post, I’m happy to announce that Maytag Canada, a Whirlpool brand, is bringing its iconic powerful and dependable laundry appliances to the Toronto 2015 Pan Am/Parapan Am Games, providing washers and dryers to ensure athletes not only perform at their best, but look great too. As the Official Appliance and Athlete Laundry Services Supplier for the Games, Maytag will furnish all athlete residences in the CIBC Pan Am/Parapan Am Athletes’ Village with over 400 washers and dryers.

Open_1175X1290_P130793_81 (2)Fact: More than 7500 athletes will depend on Maytag appliances to perform so their uniforms are ready when it’s time to compete. WOW!

For years, Canadians have chosen Maytag appliances for their durability, reliability, and power. And today, Maytag wants you to check out the bright, clean uniforms that will be sported by a women’s soccer team at the Pan Am Games… one lucky reader will win 4 tickets to a Women’s Medal Soccer match on the night of Friday, July 24th, 2015!

Recognizing Our Biggest Champions: #ThankYouMom

June 19, 2015 By Lena

Shaping, molding and nurturing one of our most important resources – our children – is no small feat, and is one that requires patience, perseverance and passion. Through countless hours, Canadian mothers play many different roles, whether it’s bringing a forgotten lunch to school, or cheering on a dedicated athlete at her track meet.

Sometimes, that athlete grows up and becomes an Olympian.

Meet Brianne Theisen-Eaton, an Olympian from London 2012. She holds the Canadian record for the indoor pentathlon with a score of 4768 points, and competes in the heptathlon and women’s pentathlon.

And meet Kim Theisen, her mom. “I did my best to be there for Brianne so that she could dedicate herself to the sport she loved. I relied on quality products for my family and taught Brianne to do the same.”

P&G’s #ThankYouMom campaign is about giving athletes an opportunity to thank their biggest champions – their moms. As a proud sponsor of moms, P&G products are used and trusted by moms every day so moms can focus on supporting their children.

This year, P&G has partnered with Athletics Canada to provide members of their team competing at the upcoming Pan Am and Parapan Am Games in Toronto and their moms an assortment of P&G products from brands like Tide, Bounty, Pantene and Gillette.

To learn more, please join us for the #ThankYouMom Twitter Chat on Monday, June 22 at 8pm EDT.
ThankYouMom Graphic v6We’ll be joined by very special guest Brianne Theisen-Eaton (@btheiseneaton), who’ll share her own experiences and examples of her mom’s support and selflessness throughout the years.

“I was honoured when P&G approached me to become involved in the Thank You Mom program,” says Theisen-Eaton. “This program gives me a chance to shine the spotlight on my mom – one of my biggest champions.” …
