Holiday Giving: Spread Joy and Warmth with BGC Ottawa

The holiday season is a time for joy, community, and giving—and at BGC Ottawa, we’re committed to making sure that our community feels the warmth of the season. Through our Holiday Giving initiatives, including our Year-End Giving Campaign for Holiday Hampers and our Angel Tree Program, we ensure that those in need receive the support they deserve.

Ways to give this holiday season

Each year, BGC Ottawa identifies families in need and partners with generous donors and businesses to provide Holiday Hampers—essential packages of food and household items. These hampers bring relief to families, offering not only necessities but also a few extra treats to brighten the holidays.

By making a special year-end gift of $250, $300, $500, or even $1,000, you can help fill a Holiday Hamper for a family in need. Plus, your generosity will go twice as far, as every dollar you give will be matched through a special offer from Loblaws, doubling the impact of your gift.

We believe that every child deserves the joy of the holiday season. Through our Clubhouse-run Angel Tree program, we provide gifts to nearly 2,000 children and youth each year. You can make this season extra special by donating funds for our “elves” to shop, contributing new, unwrapped toys, or dropping off toys at one of our Clubhouses or through your business. Your support helps bring the magic of the holidays to children throughout our community.

Together, we can create a season filled with warmth, smiles, and cherished memories.
