Fido and Evergreen create the “Share Your Care” campaign, gives $100,000 to the environment

By on July 5, 2011 at 8:53am in Fido News, Mobile News


Fido has become Canada’s green wireless carrier. They offer a few devices that are made of recycled products and have several programs that give back to the environment (planting trees, recycling old cellphones etc). Now Fido has extended their relationship with Evergreen and has come up with the “Share Your Care” campaign. In total there are 20 green Canadian projects and each of them will receive a base of $2,500 (totals $50,000), but it gets better as another 50k will be distributed to 3 of the top projects that receive the most votes. Some of the 20 projects include “Promote wildlife education”, “Million Tree Challenge” and “Educate on water resources”.

This program starts today and is on until August 14th… more here at shareyourcare.ca .

  2. You’re seriously going to say that on a thread where they donate $100,000 to the environment. Are you fuc*ing serious? On a donation? If they put that back into their clients’ accounts it would be less than a dollar each. If there was an article on this website about a cell phone company donating to cancer there would still be i****s like you to jump and complain. I’m done posting on this website, there are too many i****s.

    • I think you mean Clearnet PCS, which is where all Telus marketing material comes from and hasn’t changed since they bought then way back.
