Lunch Money Day
At the Ottawa Food Bank, we know just how much can be accomplished when a group of people give a little towards a greater cause – this is our motivation behind Lunch Money Day. Once a year, usually in May, we ask people to bring their lunch to work and instead donate the money they would have otherwise spent on fast food. Of course we’ll accept your donations any time of the year, so feel free to organize your own Lunch Money Day whenever you want and donate the proceeds to the Ottawa Food Bank.

Holiday Food Drive
Each November, we challenge workplaces across the Ottawa Region to collect funds and non-perishable food. With the help of volunteers we distribute boxes and posters, and we pick up your donations in December. The Holiday Food Drive is a great way to bring in the holiday season, and the proceeds help the Ottawa Food Bank provide emergency food service for its Member Agencies well into the winter months.
