The Ottawa Food Bank delivers 15 tons of food EVERY DAY to agencies across the city and along with food donations the Ottawa Food Bank purchases $1.2 million a year in food to give to those in need \u2013 37% of which are children. We are proud to support the Ottawa Food Bank as all of us at Oegema, Nicholson &amp; Associates believe no one, especially a child, should go hungry in our city. Any donation to help reach our team\u2019s goal for this great cause is greatly appreciated. An added reason to feel good about supporting the Ottawa Food Bank is that for every dollar in donations they receive, they turn it into $5 worth of food!\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/support.ottawafoodbank.ca\/site\/TR\/VirtualFoodDrive\/General?pg=team&amp;fr_id=1150&amp;team_id=1396\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">You can visit our team page and make a donation here<\/a> Thanks to all that support our team and the Ottawa Food Bank!<\/p><\/div><\/article><\/article><aside class=\"sidebar col-md-4\"><section class=\"widget-odd widget-last widget-first widget-1 tab-box\"><\/section><\/aside>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Get summer-ready with our 2022 cottage checklist.
