TELUS Gives us a Hand (18 Hands, Actually)

Group Shot

We were lucky enough to be part of TELUS' recent "Day of Caring", where 9 TELUS employees braved our sorting room, making a big dent in the wall of clothing. They also made a huge difference in our back hallway, helping to organize all the stuff that lives there. A huge thank you to the "Day of Caring" team!
