Hi, my name is Trevor Fraser. I'm a member of Snuneymuxw First Nation on my mother's side and Irish, Scottish, Welsh on my father's side.

I've lived through adversity including alcoholism and addiction. I've been through MCFD, Corrections, Probation, Judicial systems in near impossible situations to succeed...

I am (and always will be) in recovery for my alcoholism/addiction. I need to share this experience, so I'm completely transparent.

Being through these situations hasn't been the easiest. I do have over 5 yrs in treatment facilities, trauma therapy, counseling, holistic First Nations spiritual healing ceremonies and other practices tied into spirituality, that have been truly amazing in my recovery.

I have studied the United Nations Declaration of Rights for Indigenous Peoples, Indian Act and finally the Societies Act. The purpose for studying these, is to implement my own Non-Profit Society to help with Institutionalization as a mental health issue. I have experienced gaps in support/care most may not know exist.

There are 4 things needed to start a non-profit organization. Those are a name (secured), 3 Directors (secured), a Constitution(written) and an office of registration (unsecured).

What I am looking to fund is an office for my registration and enough funds for start-up.
