For 56 homeless people living on the streets of Vancouver, a miracle has happened. Taylor Manor, a lovely 1915 Tudor style mansion, will soon become a new refuge for them where they can seek treatment for long term mental illnesses which keep them in poverty. The home had once been used for long term care but had shut down in 2000. Now a $30 million dollar donation by a wealthy elderly couple in Vancouver is allowing the city to reopen the doors of Taylor Manor in its attempts to combat homelessness. The house is undergoing renovations and is planned to be open in the next two years. For more information on this story, please go here.
