The Alaska Nanooks introduced a new weekly series that will highlight one Alaska Nanook corporate partner throughout the course of a week, posting various types of engagement on the Alaska Nanooks social media platforms and website.

“Although this is a very different year than what we are used to, we in the Athletics Department are so thankful to our corporate partners who continue to support our Nanook student-athletes,” said Nona Letuligasenoa. She is the associate athletic director for corporate partnerships

“Despite competition schedules being canceled, postponed or scaled down, our student-athletes are currently on campus practicing and working toward their progress toward degree. Without the help of our corporate partners and donors this season, it would’ve been extremely hard to give our student-athletes the support they needed this year.”

Each Monday in the #ThankYou series will be focused on getting to know the selected corporate partner. In its first #ThankYou week, the Alaska Nanooks are highlighting longtime sponsor Kinross Fort Knox.
