Why Ottawa Italian Women’s Filò Gala supports Habitat Greater Ottawa to build homes, hope, and community.

Safe, stable and affordable housing plays a critical role in helping families to build a solid foundation upon which they can thrive and access opportunities.

With over 12,000 households on Ottawa’s Centralized Waiting List, there are far too many families living in inadequate and unaffordable housing in our city. By increasing the number of homes we build, we are creating more opportunities for families to access homeownership affordably.

Every $1 raised for Habitat for Humanity creates $4 in social impact.
