The
Education Foundation of Ottawa removes economic barriers to successful
learning by responding to urgent needs identified by teachers
and principals, with financial and in-kind support for students
within the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board, who are at risk
of failing due to factors associated with poverty.
With
close to 70,000 students in the Ottawa-Carleton District School
Board, our teachers are the front line workers who can identify
children who are in need of support. The Education Foundation
of Ottawa responds immediately and with discretion, providing
basic needs such as food, warm clothing and emergency medication.
The
Foundation also invests in long term solutions that reduce the
impact of poverty on student success. We support students who
have significant challenges and provide funds to help them participate
in musical, artistic and recreational programs.
