On Giving Tuesday,a global occasion to support your favourite cause, we hope you’ll support your local environmental organization working to build a greener Ottawa. To mark this special day, we’re pleased to offer a limited run of complimentary calendars for new monthly donors or one-time donors giving gifts of $50 or more.
Eleven years into building a movement to fight for the city we love, Ecology Ottawa is proudly supported by nearly 90,000 residents across Ottawa, over 8,000 of whom have contributed financially to our work. This year, your support helped usher in a greener city council, promote green infrastructure solutions, deliver thousands of trees to residents across the city, and push for stronger action on climate change.
At a fundamental level, your support shows Ottawa’s political leaders that the environment can never be taken for granted. You have helped build a movement: more than ever before, decision-makers know that there is a large and growing network of passionate residents who will relentlessly stand up for climate leadership, green space, rivers and safe streets for pedestrians and cyclists.
These movements are built through advocacy campaigns and community outreach. This work – Ecology Ottawa’s most impactful and long-lasting contribution to Ottawa’s environment –is not typically supported by grants. Instead, it is powered by the support of generous one-time and monthly donors such as yourself. Thank you!
There so much more to do for Ottawa’s environment in 2019. Help power it today and receive a free calendar filled with gorgeous shots of the city you love. Here is a preview of the calendar:

Members of ECCC invited to webinar on incineration
On April 8, we invited members of City Council’s Environment and Climate Change Committee (ECCC) to attend a webinar on incineration.
