TORONTO – Telus has once again pledged its support to the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation via its annual ‘Go Pink’ campaign which seeks to raise money to fund breast cancer fellowships for research into the early detection and treatment of the disease.
Telus will contribute $25 to the Foundation for every pink BlackBerry Curve 9360 smart phone sold, and an additional $5 for each purchase of select pink phone accessories. Canadians may also visit Telus’ Facebook page to create their own ‘pink network’ – an on-line, shareable photo gallery – and Telus will contribute an additional $1 for every new photo gallery created.
"Each year, thousands of Canadians are affected by breast cancer. It not only impacts the individuals living with the disease, but their families, friends and loved ones as well," said Jill Schnarr, Telus’ VP of community affairs, in the announcement. “We are so proud to partner with the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation to raise awareness about the importance of early detection of breast cancer in women and to come together as a Pink Network for a healthier Canada."
