Each year, the Annual Giving Campaign brings our community together to raise critical funds that sustain and grow our free programs.
As our largest crowdfunding campaign of the year, the Annual Giving Campaign supports people living in Ottawa Community Housing by funding programs and initiatives that build brighter futures by providing recreation opportunities for children, education supports for youth, holiday meals and more. Every dollar donated directly supports programs that create lasting positive change and bring moments of joy to people living in OCH communities.
The campaign runs for six weeks each year between November and December, a season when generosity has the power to make an immediate and meaningful impact. Your contribution is more than a donation, it’s a commitment to opportunity, empowerment, and stronger communities.
Corporate and community partners can amplify the campaign’s impact by sponsoring a week of giving and inspiring others to contribute. Matching donors help double the generosity during their sponsored week and receive recognition across our campaign platforms.
Your support makes a BIG difference! Here are a few ways you can contribute to the Annual Giving Campaign.
Make a Donation: Donations are always welcome and help support free programs that create lasting impact.
