LiveDifferent provides mental wellness programming to schools all across Canada. It's one more way we try to empower young people with a sense of value, purpose, and responsibility. Each year, our two teams of passionate young people tour full-time from coast to coast; their presentations include a mix of personal stories, videos, crowd interactions, Circles sessions and more.
The importance of billets From September to May, we manage to visit nearly 300 schools and reach up to 100,000 students. For this program to operate successfully, we rely heavily on the generosity of others to help our teams find places to stay for an evening (or more). As a charity, it's just not possible for us to book hotel rooms everywhere we go, so most of the time we gratefully stay in people's homes, churches, schools, etc.

A privilege to have them stay at our house and with our family. They were full of energy and very respectful of everyone around them. The short duration of their stay at our house was wonderful. The guys were more than willing to assist in getting things done such as cleaning up after supper, using our sauna, or being great examples of fine young men. In short, we had a blast with them. They were extremely grateful for the comforts they were given.

They reaffirmed my confidence in our youth of today. This group was very helpful and interactive, even teaching our family how to play Settlers of Catan, rewiring my DVD/VCR unit back into the TV complex, folding all my laundry on the shelf before starting on their own, and making us Jamie Popcorn. By Sunday, I was proud. These young people should make their own families proud as I am certain the LiveDifferent organization is proud of them. They are excellent ambassadors for LiveDifferent.

A really great group of young people. You would never even know that they had been there after they left! They asked if they could help to prepare the meal and helped to clean up after. They were simply a great group!

Whether you want to see us once a year or you'd rather invite us over more often, we guarantee you'll have a fun time hosting our road teams.
We don't want to overstay our welcome! Our teams will stay in a billet's home a maximum of 3 nights.
Our teams usually consist of 4-5 young people inspired to make a difference, including a LiveDifferent staff member and a few volunteers. They are all extremely grateful to folks who choose to open up their homes while they’re on the road.
We travel from coast to coast, so chances are we will land in your town or city at some point!
As a billet, you allow LiveDifferent to save over $200,000 a year by not staying in hotels and around $110,000 a year in food cost. All of these savings go towards our youth programs!
Score some tax benefits for your generosity! You’ll receive a charitable tax receipt for each night you host our teams, and if you provide them with meals, we’ll include that too.
Become a billet and help support LiveDifferent's programming for youth across Canada
