[NAME] Tyler Reid tnereid@shaw.ca [AGE] 18
Tyler's Firewood Company It is easy to judge a book by its cover, but one is truly defined by their character and integrity. If we open up any chapter of Tyler Reid’s life it would involve being selfless, respectful, and caring for those around him. Despite many of his peers failing to pay attention to him, he made sure to always recognize those who were around him. After taking on a project by the request of his Great Uncle to collect wood to fuel fires, he had decided to turn his passion of collecting this resource into a viable business. He defied all odds, and has made Tyler’s Firewood Company into a respectable establishment. Being successful is one important element in life, but being philanthropic displays how generous and grateful one is for their success. He became an entrepreneur at the age of 14, and one can only commend his maturity and success within the community. Currently at 18 years of age, and entering his fifth year in business, Tyler has been able to partner up with Hazelmere RV Park and Campground, Victory Memorial Funeral Centre, Jacob Brothers Construction, RONA, as well as Echo Power Equipment. He has also donated several hundred dollars to the Semiahmoo House Society and can be seen volunteering there offering to sweep the floors or even help the staff set up equipment and furniture.
