We're needed more than ever and this kind of support is so appreciated

Give #10 is here for supporting Mental Health, Grief & Healing Programs ❤️‍🩹

For over 50 years, Distress Centre of Ottawa & Region has provided free, 24-hour emotional support and crisis intervention to anyone in distress or crisis — one conversation at a time.

Their volunteers offer a lifeline of compassion, empathy, and understanding when it’s needed most.

Every call, text, and chat is an opportunity to remind someone that they are not alone.

You can help support a distress centre in your community by spreading awareness. Together, WE can make a difference.
