The Northern Lights Public Schools (NLPS) Board thanked Cenovus Energy recently for their ongoing support.

On April 20, Lise Warawa and Alex Okinczyc from Cenovus joined the regular board meeting at NLPS to discuss recent changes with the company and initiatives to support schools and the community.

Board Chair Karen Packard thanked them for the ongoing support NLPS receives from Cenovus, including a $10,000 contribution to help provide food security for students.

Cenovus employees have also contributed through payroll deductions, resulting in an additional $6,600 for NLPS students.

A little over a year ago, Cenovus acquired Husky, resulting in many changes to the company’s operation.

Warawa and Okinczyc confirmed that Cenovus remains committed to supporting the communities through social investments in four focus areas: Indigenous reconciliation, protected planet, future-ready youth, and resilient communities.

“The investment that Cenovus has made in the lives of our students over many, many years is greatly appreciated by NLPS,” Karen Packard, Board Chair at the NLPS, told Lakeland Connect. “Their support allows us to provide opportunities and services that contribute to student success and provide invaluable learning opportunities for students. We look forward to continuing our partnership with Cenovus and working together to support our students and strengthen our communities.”

Lakeland Connect would also like to give Cenovus a shoutout and say thank you for caring about Lakeland and its youth.
