Nutrition Blocs

01/16/2026

No child should have to learn on an empty stomach, yet every day in Ottawa, 40,000 children do. Nutrition Blocs is working to change that - one meal at a time, and you can help. And with $100/month, you can support one child with 20 meals and the nutrition they need to grow up healthy and hopeful.
Let’s give them something they can sink their teeth into.
Donate today. Make hunger one less thing they have to worry about.

As January 30th approaches, we continue to look forward to the Canadian Culinary Championship’s Mystery Wine Pairing Event. Ten chefs from across Canada are going head-to-head to win the title of Canadian Culinary Champion. Nutrition Blocs is honoured to have been selected as the food charity partner for this event. We are grateful to the CCC for supporting our mission of providing nutritious meals to school-aged children in Ottawa.

Our donors helped Nutrition Blocs grow again in 2025. We delivered more than twice as many summer meals (over 20,000) as in 2023 and increased the number of hot lunches for children living in family shelters. One in four school-aged children in Ottawa starts their day hungry. That’s over 40,000 reasons why we believe so strongly about the work you help us do. Thank you to all our donors who are helping Nutrition Blocs change lives and build better futures for children and families in Ottawa.

When creativity brings a community together, the impact can reach far beyond the gallery walls.

The Great BIG Smalls Art Show at Cube Gallery is showcasing the work of talented Canadian artists while supporting something just as important. Through this year’s show, 20% of all art sales are being donated to Nutrition Blocs to help address food insecurity among school-aged children.
Now is the time to explore the collection as there is only one week left to support Canadian artists, and make a difference in a child’s life.

Right now, every dollar you give to Nutrition Blocs is being matched, up to $10,000, thanks to the generosity of Yorkville Asset Management. That means more children living in food-insecure households across Ottawa will receive the hot, nourishing meals they’ve been missing on too many days.

Meals that bring joy.
Meals that feel like home.
Meals that say to a child, you matter.

This season, your gift to Nutrition Blocs is going twice as far.
Please help fuel more futures today: https://nutritionblocs.org/donate/

Thank you, Yorkville Asset Management, for helping us deliver warm meals and wishes.

🎨 Just as art inspires imagination, colour, and possibility…
A healthy meal gives a child the energy, focus, and hope they need to embrace their day.

Both feed something essential — one feeds the mind, and the other feeds the body. But you don't have to choose; with your support, you can help children nourish their bodies while feeding their dreams.

Meet the artist and community leader Don Monet, who is making this happen through the Great BIG Smalls Art Show at the Cube Gallery, with 20% of sales being donated to Nutrition Blocs to support the nutritional needs of the most vulnerable school-aged children in Ottawa.
