Take Part in the #CallForChange with TELUS and Francesco Yates and You Could Be in a Special MTV We Day Video

September 10, 2015 by Kathryn 18 Comments

About three years ago, the hugely popular We Day came to Saskatchewan for the very first time and I was lucky enough to be seated in the TELUS sponsor booth enjoying every minute of the event. From taking pictures with Shawn Desmond to interviewing Hedley, it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that gave me a first-hand look at the good being done by young people across the country.

Over the next three years, I attended every single We Day event in my province. And each time, TELUS was right there as a proud national sponsor of the event that inspires youth in Canada and around the world to stand up, choose a cause and make a difference. Now, TELUS has teamed up with up-and-coming Canadian musician Francesco Yates to create an inspirational music video that will be used to inspire We Day attendants to #CallforChange!

From now until September 20, 2015, participants can upload a video of themselves singing, dancing and jamming to Francesco Yates’ hit song, Call. The videos will be compiled into a special remix video that will be shown at We Day events and on MTV! For full details and to learn how to upload your video, visit mtv.ca/callforchange.

Finding Inspiration to Change the World at We Day Saskatchewan with Telus-Giveaway

November 15, 2013 by Kathryn 155 Comments

I think almost everyone feels insignificant at some point, as if their actions couldn’t possibly make a difference in the world. But when one spark ignites to inspire hundreds, then the smallest actions can have a big impact on the world. Craig Kielburger is the perfect example of that philosophy. At just twelve years of age, he read a story about child slavery and was inspired to take action. He talked to his teacher, stood up in front of his class and ignited the spark that would grow to become Free the Children, an international charity and educational partner that operates in 45 different countries.

But his work didn’t stop there! As a believer that youth would be the ones that change the world, Craig and his brother Mark joined together in initiatives that would both better the world and inspire young people to make a difference. One of the brothers’ most well-known and inspiring achievements was the founding of We Day, the national celebration of youth leaders in the community. Last year, We Day came to Saskatchewan for the very first time. And this year the event returned once more to celebrate and inspire the 16,000 youth in attendance.
