Everyone could use a little help - follow the stories of three Canadians doing incredible things



Meet Honore Prentice, Pablo Listingart and Maryam Nabavi.

Like millions of Canadians, they get a little help in their everyday lives from Google’s products, programs and services.

But theirs aren’t everyday stories.

Honore, Pablo and Maryam are the focus of the first three episodes of a 12-part video series we’re debuting called A Little Help; stories where remarkable Canadians accomplish extraordinary things with a little help from technology.

You can watch them now:

Honore Prentice, an artist and trans-racial adoptee from Haiti, was found by his long-lost biological brother through the power of Google Search and now uses Google Translate to communicate with his newfound family:
