Whippany, N.J. (April 7, 2022) — Suburban Propane Partners L.P., a nationwide distributor of propane, renewable propane, fuel oil and related products and services, as well as a marketer of natural gas and electricity and investor in low carbon fuel alternatives, joined forces with the Washington Capitals to celebrate the team's Go Green Night on April 6. As part of this sponsorship, Suburban Propane provided power for the Capitals' ice resurfacer, and participated in green-themed game-time activities for fans. This partnership is supported by Suburban Propane's "Go Green With Suburban Propane" brand pillar, which promotes the clean burning characteristics of propane, and renewable propane, as a bridge to a green energy future and the next generation of renewable energy.
In further celebration of Go Green Night, Capitals players autographed and donned limited-edition green warmup jerseys to be auctioned by the Monumental Sports & Entertainment Foundation to benefit the area nonprofit DC Greens in its mission to launch "The Well" — a farm and community space in southeast Washington D.C.
The fundraiser, which also features limited-edition, autographed green Capitals hockey pucks, has already launched and bidding is live at washcaps.com/gogreenauction; the auction concludes at 12:00 p.m. EDT on Friday, April 15th. Proceeds from the 50/50 raffle that will be held during the game on April 6th will also support DC Greens.
"We are thrilled to sponsor the Washington Capitals Go Green Night benefitting DC Greens," said Nandini Sankara, spokesperson, Suburban Propane. "It is through thoughtful and meaningful sponsorships like this that we are able to grow our 'Go Green with Suburban Propane' brand corporate pillar, and support a greener future here in D.C. and across our footprint."
