It’s Toque Tuesday — your chance to stay warm while supporting homeless youth in Ottawa.
The annual ‘Raising the Roof’ fundraiser sells hats, mittens and socks and, in Ottawa and a portion of the money goes to support Operation Come Home.
Get your gear:
-Ottawa City Hall – Jean Pigott Hall
-Rideau Centre – MacKenzie King Station – 3rd Floor
-Constitution Square – 340, 350, 360 Albert St. – Lobby
-Place de Ville – 112 Kent St. – Lobby
-Place de Ville – 330 Sparks St. – Lobby
-Jean Edmonds – North – 300 Slater St. – Lobby
-Jean Edmonds – South – 365 Laurier Ave. – Lobby
50 per cent of each item purchased directly benefits Operation Come Home’s local programs, while the remaining proceeds (after item costs) support Raising the Roof’s national homelessness prevention initiatives.
