Barb and John Taylor were individuals who worked tirelessly to preserve and improve the quality of life for all people and animals, and to ensure the physical world on which we all depend remains healthy. It was their intention in setting up their donor advised fund that they might continue to support organizations doing this important work in perpetuity.

The Ellie O'Day Arts and Housing Fund was established to support arts and housing projects. Grants from the fund currently support Performing Arts Lodges (PAL) Vancouver which provides housing to people in the professional performing arts, 55+, or disabled.
