The Ottawa Food Bank is working with a local service provider who is managing and executing a tele-fundraising campaign for our organization. This campaign will be running from February 2, 2026 to June 15, 2026.
About our Tele-fundraising Campaign
The Ottawa Food Bank supports a network of almost 100 food programs across our city. Fresh, nutritious food is distributed throughout Ottawa to help the over 1 in 4 families who do not have enough food to eat.
Our tele-fundraising program allows us to connect with incredible supporters such as yourself to share updates about your impact, and invite you to become a monthly donor. By becoming a part of our Nourish Forward community of monthly donors, you can help to provide nutritious food for our neighbours year round.
