The plight of a blind University of Ottawa student who had her iPhone stolen brought a huge response from the community. However, it was three Rogers employees who managed to pool their resources first.
Victoria Francis had her iPhone stolen at the University cafeteria last week. The phone has special software which allowed her to hear what was on the screen.
Three Rogers employees – Marc De Celles, Oui Siryouthay and Lawrence Lee – combined their Christmas bonuses and bought the student the new phone.
Frances thanked the three, telling the University newspaper, “I’m so grateful to all those who listened and helped.”
