This year, CBC is hosting Project Give live from the National Arts Centre to celebrate community and kindness!
This holiday season, help give hope and health to people in need in Ottawa. Tune in to CBC Ottawa on Friday, December 9 for the annual charity drive, Project Give, in support of the Ottawa Food Bank!
After a two-year hiatus, CBC Ottawa will present a whole day of special broadcasts LIVE from the NAC, with your favourite local hosts and reporters, supporting our community. Ottawa Morning, All in a Day, and News at 6 will feature stories, music, and contests in support of the Ottawa Food Bank.
Last year, CBC’s listeners, viewers, and fans helped raise an incredible $278,937.86 for our neighbours in need.
