OCH FOUNDATION

ANNUAL GIVING CAMPAIGN

The OCH Foundation Annual Giving Campaign will place between November 12th and December 20th, 2024

As we enter the season of giving, I invite you to be part of something truly meaningful—an opportunity to impact the lives of countless individuals by helping their stories unfold.

At the heart of the Ottawa Community Housing Foundation lies a commitment to bringing the stories of our OCH tenants to life—stories of resilience, perseverance, and hope. Through our Stories That Matter Annual Giving Campaign, we aim to transform the everyday experiences of thousands of residents by ensuring they have access to the support and opportunities they need to thrive.

Your contribution, no matter the size, is more than just a donation. It is an investment in the next chapter of someone’s life—whether that’s someone earning an education bursary, a newcomer family finding joy through recreation, or a parent receiving the support they need to build a stable future.

When you support the OCH Foundation, you are shaping the stories that matter most in our community and helping to create a brighter future for the people who call Ottawa Community Housing home.

All the proceeds from this sale will go directly back into Ottawa Community Housing (OCH) communities bringing smiles to tenants living in OCH communities.
