Where do you see yourself in 3 years?

If you’re Elisabeth Vathje, Women’s Skeleton Athlete, you see yourself standing proud on more international podiums.

WealthCo is honoured to stand behind this strong and successful young woman as part of our own dedication to supporting future leaders.

Fresh from hitting the Top 10 in the 2018 Winter Olympics, Vathje remains committed to excelling on the international stage as she takes aim at the next Olympics Beijing in 2022. The young athlete shows the kind of dedication and perseverance that true winners embody.

Successes in her sport include three silver and one bronze medal in previous World Cup championships (St. Moritz, Lake Placid, Winterberg, Iglis), and 9th place in the most recent 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyong Chang, Korea.

We are proud to have sponsored the young athlete in her rise on the global stage and have repeatedly committed ourselves to supporting the future leaders of our community. WealthCo will continue to watch, and cheer on, this dynamic young woman in her rise to the top.

Team Vathje is a team effort and it requires a special kind of alchemy to help turn Olympic dreams into gold. Now more than ever, Canadian Olympic hopefuls like Elisabeth need the support of their communities. Funding has been decreased moving towards the 2018 Winter Olympics, with Skeleton taking a significant cut at 80%. Through your support, Elizabeth is able to keep her eyes on the prize and represent Canada on the international podium.
