Telus will be giving a break to its low-income customers during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Vancouver-based company will be automatically waiving the fees for its Internet for Good program for the next two months.
The Internet for Good program is provided to more than 200,000 families who receive the maximum Canada Child Benefit. The program provides monthly internet service for $9.95 per month as well as access to a low-cost computer and free digital literacy training.
“Reflecting Telus’ longstanding commitment to leveraging our technology, in combination with our culture of giving, to bridge social and economic digital divides, our team is working diligently—with their hearts and their hands—to keep our communities and customers connected throughout this unprecedented time in history,” Telus president and CEO Darren Entwistle said in a press release.
“By increasing our support for low-income Canadians through our Internet for Good program, we are helping families prioritize their well-being during this pandemic.”
