Quotes from Ottawa
Cancer Survivor Park
“[TELUS Day of Service was] super fun. It’s great to be able to do volunteer work where you have some common ground with the people around you and work as a team.”
Kim

“It’s exciting to get out and help in the local community. Working with our new born made it challenging but it was nice to have her out with us, working as a family. Plus it doesn’t hurt to get in some early exposure to community giving.”
Aaron

“This is the second year that we’ve brought the girls and they love it. We love being outside in the community and getting a sense of Daddy’s work and meeting his colleagues. All of that, coupled with giving back to the community in a park that they see, makes for a great experience and life lesson – not to mention the girls love the TELUS colouring books.”

“What it translates to for us is the equivalent of two weeks of work for two of our people; the TELUS team saved us a heck of a lot of work. Today, in just two and half hours we collected 20 plus large bags of compost, one bag of littler, two totes of rocks plus a whole mess of dandelions. The best part is getting everything cleaned at the beginning of the year. It’s the hardest time, everything grows like mad and TELUS’ help really makes a huge difference. I can’t thank you guys enough.”

“TELUS is an amazing corporate partner in our community. They are leaders in philanthropic giving in our community, and we are honoured to be working with their team members again this year for TELUS Day of Service.”
