The company which is based in Cork, Dublin and Mayo, have raised the phenomenal amount of money for Aware and My Lovel Horse Rescue.
Each charity will receive €25,000 and the donation will support more than 2,000 calls to Aware’s mental health helpline and pay for My Lovely Horse Rescue’s animal feed bill in Cork for 2022.
TELUS International Ireland is a global customer experience and digital IT solutions provider.
Almost 500 team members took part in a sponsored virtual climb of Mount Kilimanjaro last month to raise the funds.

Speaking of the successful fundraiser, TELUS International Ireland’s Director of Human Resources, Miriam Manning, said:
“We are absolutely blown away by the efforts of our team and the support from our community for these two amazing charities.
By all coming together to virtually climb Mount Kilimanjaro, our team members collectively walked more than 22,000 kilometres in just two weeks.”
