Telus Supports We Day Saskatchewan Sweepstakes

Back in November I had the chance to inform my readers about We Day. We Day has been sweeping across the nation inspiring our youth and now I am proud to say will be presenting tomorrow in my home province of Saskatchewan.   Attendees cannot purchase tickets to this event but rather the youth of our local communities showing promise towards change and inspiration are given the life-changing opportunity to attend.  This year, Telus Mobility has taken on the role of one of the main sponsors for We Day; with the use of technology today, I could not think of a better sponsor to represent such a powerful message.

 

Many tweens and teens throughout Saskatchewan will be driving the distance to attend this once in a lifetime opportunity for We Day Saskatchewan in Saskatoon.  Telus has generously offered me the opportunity to attend and document this event using the Samsung Galaxy SIII with my eldest daughter, Miss Priss.  At the age of 12, Miss Priss is already wise beyond her years, thinking of future generations and how they will be effected by our actions today.  I’m excited to be able to share this experience with my daughter and watch the results unfold after she witnesses such a powerful message.  With the right motivation I have always thought Miss Priss to have the strong personality to achieve great things. For many students who will be attending tomorrows event, this event will inspire change and movement in our youth and their futures.

 

If you aren’t able to attend one of these events in person, check out the We Day website for other ways you can act, inspire and live the change. I know as a parent I will be moved at the sheer vastness of this event and look forward to seeing how our youth uses this gift.  Check back for my We Day experience after tomorrow.  Telus recognizes the potential of our youth today offering many educational opportunities, safety programs and products for our youth to embrace the newest technology safely.
