Last week, I had the opportunity to sit down over coffee with a man who shared a transformative story.

December 22nd, 2024 – Holiday Giving is Important, But How Can We Provide Ongoing Support and Lasting Solutions for the Marginalized?
Today, I had the privilege of delivering food to people in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside (DTES) with Ziggy and others. When we arrived, I noticed fewer people in line than usual, as many had recently received their welfare benefits and were savoring them.
