Help Reverend Al End Poverty in Victoria, One Person at a Time.

Just imagine, it's dark and cold as you pull your thin jacket up around your shoulders. You're making a bed in a corner of Topaz Park for the night, feeling more alone than you've ever felt before.

This was Tyler just two years ago.

Tyler had lost all hope for his future and was living on the streets of Victoria, BC. One day, a small gesture of kindness from a caring neighbour changed everything. Reverend Al offered Tyler a sleeping bag, a hot cup of coffee, and told him about the Victoria Dandelion Society. The acceptance and support of this community helped Tyler turn his life around. Today, he lives in long-term transitional housing, volunteers every day, and plans to go back to school to become a counsellor.
