Christmas can be a particularly tough time of year for families and individuals who require emergency food support
Making a monetary donation to the Ottawa Food Bank over the holidays helps us provide holiday extras to our community food programs across the city. We would not be able to do this without your support.
Your donations help us provide:
- 1,800 Turkeys
- 804 Hams
- 300 portions of Halal Beef
- 3,062 grocery store gift cards

Here’s a sample of what your gifts mean to the guests at our
community food programs
[blockquote]We are always grateful for any extra donations. There is a real need for food over the Holiday season and our participants are pleased to see an increase in the size of their hamper. One of our regulars told me about his situation. He is a single person who gets invited to the homes of various family members throughout the year. He says that Christmas is the only time that he is able to invite his relatives to his house for a meal. He says that he would never be able to afford it on his own but that with the help of the holiday extras he gets a chance to pay back their kindness. – Caldwell Family Centre[/blockquote]
[blockquote]We are a non-profit organization serving at-risk and homeless youth. Each month Operation Come Home can see an average of 500+ youth access our morning drop-in program, where they are provided hot breakfast, and access to the food bank, as well are connected with other local resources and services. Each year OCH is thrilled to host a holiday party for our clients, and provide them with a hardy holiday feast. Without the Ottawa Food Bank’s support, we may not be able to provide that feeling of the holidays to our clients. Each year our holiday party can bring in anywhere from 100-150+ youth, making the support we receive from the community so critical – Operation Come Home [/blockquote][/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Donate Now” color=”danger” size=”lg” align=”center” i_align=”right” i_icon_fontawesome=”fa fa-cutlery” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fpayment.csfm.com%2Fdonations%2Fofb%2Findex.php||target:%20_blank|” add_icon=”true”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
