Fundraising Ideas?

"There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it." -Edith Wharton

Interval House of Ottawa is grateful for the ongoing support of our community. Whether you want to host a special fundraising dinner with friends and family, a workplace campaign or a community event on our behalf, we are very appreciative of your support.

The women and their children who stay with us at Interval House of Ottawa are always overwhelmed by the compassion and dedication of our supporters. We can’t thank you enough for your commitment to our organization.

Interval House of Ottawa can make use of a variety of types of donations. Perhaps you can come up with some creative ways of making a donation that we haven’t even thought of! By giving in these creative ways, you’re helping Interval House of Ottawa residents and you may be giving others an idea about how they can help too!

Some Examples:

  • Donate Gift Cards
  • Air Miles or Canadian Tire Money
  • Having a Party? Ask your guests to make a donation in lieu of gifts

If you have a fundraising event that you’d like to arrange or if you’d like more information about our current needs, please give us a call at 613.234.8511 or email us–we are excited to hear from you!


Charity Challenges


We have exciting news to share with you–Interval House of Ottawa was selected as one of the recipients of the Dufresne Charity Challenge grants!  We are deeply appreciative of the $10,000 in product that Dufresne is providing to us to help us furnish our new home!  We hope that our supporters will match the generosity of Dufresne over the next couple of months--we are counting on you to help us create an environment that is safe, welcoming and comfortable for our residents and their children.  We need your help!  If you would like to make a difference in the lives of the women and children who use our services, please call us (613.234.8511 ext. 210)–we look forward to hearing from you.

“Dufresne Furniture & Appliances is celebrating their 25th Anniversary by giving $500,000 to over 50 charities as part of the Dufresne $1 Million Charity Challenge. In turn, each non-profit recipient is challenged to raise matching funds to turn Dufresne’s $500,000 investment into $1 million for charity!  Communities, after all, affect all of us and are the cornerstone to success. What better way to say Thanks than to give back to the communities where we work, live and play! “
