Fund Raisers
Snowflake Breakfast
Since 2005, the community has come together every first Friday of December for the Snowflake Breakfast, a fundraiser for our Partage Vanier Food Bank. The event, held at the Centre Pauline-Charron, brings together nearly 500 community members including elected officials, leaders from the City of Ottawa services and residents. The Snowflake Breakfast also recognizes the significant contribution of volunteers to the Partage Vanier Food Bank. Funds raised during this campaign are used to purchase food and essential items for the food bank.
Espoirs culinaires
The Vanier CSC with La Cité collégiale organize an annual culinary event, a benefit for the Vanier CSC’s Family Services.
Every year, the event showcases the ingredients and traditions of a partnering embassy during a full day of food events. From the morning culinary competition, to the evening cocktail and five course dinner event, there is nothing like food to gather people for a good cause!
Partage Beechwood Dinner
The Vanier Business Improvement Association has been organizing one of the most anticipated events of the year, a fundraiser for the Partage Vanier Food Bank. Guests are welcomed to the historic site of Beechwood Cemetery. Along a long table seating nearly 200 people, a local high-end restaurant presents a 5-course meal showcasing seasonal local ingredients. Each year, the event becomes increasingly special with surprise elements that astonish all guests—opera singers, instrument parades, musicians, and more.
