This GivingTuesday, Mint Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) customers saved more than just money when they switched to Mint. Today, the wireless company announced that it is donating earnings from new customer purchases that took place on GivingTuesday (Dec. 3) to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital® — for a total contribution of $250,000. That means new Mint customers can feel proud knowing they contributed to an incredible cause.
Mint Mobile’s Ryan Reynolds explained why this is so important to the company in a post Tuesday morning.
“I’ve been called the modern-day Danny Thomas… by absolutely no one. However I have always admired his work, especially St. Jude,” said Mint Mobile’s Ryan Reynolds. “Mint and I are so proud to support GivingTuesday and this amazing place.”
“At Mint Mobile, we believe in keeping wireless bills small and making a big difference,” said Andrew Fried, CMO of Mint Mobile. “This GivingTuesday, we turned our success into support for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, making this season one of connection, compassion and savings for all.”
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital is known for its relentless efforts to research and treat childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases. When you support St. Jude, you can help make cures possible for kids with cancer. Together, we can save more lives.
“We are profoundly grateful to Ryan, Mint Mobile and its customers for coming together this GivingTuesday to support St. Jude families,” said Richard C. Shadyac Jr., President and CEO of ALSAC, the fundraising and awareness organization for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. “Because of generous donations like this, St. Jude can continue to find cures and save the lives of children with cancer and other catastrophic diseases while staying true to our foundational promise that no family will receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food so families can focus on helping their child.”
This donation is just another example of how Mint Mobile always puts their customers — and people in general — first. Every child deserves the chance to live their best life and celebrate every moment. For more information on Mint Mobile, visit mintmobile.com.
