Phones for Good®

When you activate a new smartphone with TELUS, good things happen. Sometimes we provide meals; sometimes we help families struggling with illness. And we do it all through local charities that understand best the needs of their communities. It’s part of who we are: we give where we live™. And that means when you purchase a smartphone, TELUS will contribute to a local charity. It’s called Phones for Good®, and it’s another good reason to upgrade to TELUS.
