Great to host community foundation leaders from across Canada as part of @CommFdnsCanada's CEO Spring Gathering this morning at @ChefRics, a cornerstone of @OttawaMission & shining example of social enterprise success in Ottawa. For those who couldn't make it, you were missed!

Happy V-Day from our kitchen to yours! Hussein is finishing up the final batch of garlic bread that will top today's lunch special. Heart-shaped Ravioli with a Ricotta and Parmesan filling, topped with a creamy rosé sauce and served with toasty garlic bread and a side salad.

Gas prices have risen 48% since last year & food prices have risen 8.8% from just last month. These climbing costs are having a direct impact on our food truck program, which serves 7,000 meals per week. Your support means so much to those we serve. ❤️ ottawamission.com
