100 lunch bags, every Saturday, for Centretown
Every Saturday at 11 AM at our prayer space at 375 Somerset St. W, a team of dedicated volunteers comes together to make 100 lunch bags for distribution to the hungry on the streets of Centretown in Ottawa. We also run activities throughout the year, from Eid baskets for the elderly to more.

We need volunteers to help purchase the groceries, make the lunch bags, distribute them, and/or drive the volunteer distributors to drop-off locations. If you wish to volunteer for this project, be at the centre on Saturdays — snow days and holidays, the program is always running.
