A very special part of the TELUS presents the Vancouver Santa Claus Parade is celebrating the “Spirit of Giving.” Each year, on parade day, volunteers collect nonperishable food items and monetary donations on behalf of the Greater Vancouver Food Bank Society. For every $1 donated, the Food Bank can purchase $3 worth of food! We are also thrilled to announce our new partnership with the CKNW Orphans’ Fund! If just 200 people donate $10 each, the CKNW Orphans’ Fund can send a child with special needs to speech therapy, tutoring, or even ensure they have custom hearing aids.
