Collect to help fight food insecurity this holiday season!
Turn gratitude into action this holiday season with the CTV Your Morning Ottawa Holiday Food Drive proudly presented by CLV Group!
As families continue to face rising costs, the Ottawa Food Bank and the nearly 100 food programs we support see increased demand during the holiday season.
To help meet this need, we’re partnering with CTV Your Morning Ottawa and CLV Group and inviting community members to host food and fund drives. Whether you’re a workplace, community group, school, or a few friends coming together, your support can make a real difference.
Register your holiday food drive below and help feed our community this holiday season.
Help Us Fill Fridges This Holiday Season!
How it works:
- Register your holiday food drive through our online registration form to set up your virtual fund drive or physical food drive
Drop-Offs and Pick Ups:
The Ottawa Food Bank will only dispatch a driver to pick up a load of food donations of 10 boxes or more. If you have requested a pickup, a member of the Community Engagement and Events Team will be in touch closer to the date to confirm the pickup day and time and amount of food collected. Please add your event ID # to all boxes.With less than 10 boxes of food collected, please drop them off at our warehouse or one of our grocery store donation bins in participating Loblaws and Metro locations.
If you wish to drop off collected food before the holidays, ensure it is brought to the Ottawa Food Bank warehouse by 3 p.m. on Wednesday, December 23rd, 2025. The need for food support continues beyond the holiday period. We are extremely grateful to accept your food donations throughout January.
