What if one simple act of kindness could change thousands of lives?
In this inspiring episode of Imagine the Good, hosts Robyn and Jason welcome Greg Ould and his son Ben, the father-son team behind Blanket BC, a nonprofit dedicated to helping people experiencing homelessness through compassion, community support, and the gift of warmth.
What began in 2005 with Greg giving a blanket to a man struggling to survive a cold Vancouver night has grown into a remarkable community initiative that has distributed more than 750,000 blankets.
Greg and Ben share their journey of building Blanket BC, the life-changing lessons learned through volunteering, and how raising children with empathy and generosity can create a lasting legacy.
Discover the power of small acts of kindness, the importance of community involvement, and how businesses, families, and individuals can make a meaningful difference in addressing homelessness and helping vulnerable communities.
Because changing the world doesn't always require a grand gesture. Sometimes, it starts with one blanket and one person willing to care.
Listen now and discover how compassion, family values, and community action can transform lives and inspire generations to give back.
