Pour the Champlain! 🍾 🥂

On this super-special Monday, not only are we playing in Champlain Park, but we're also collecting menstrual product donations along with our Thursday sponsor, Only, for the Ottawa Food Bank!

There is a growing need for menstrual hygiene products among people who access food banks - they are among the most requested, yet least donated items at local food banks and shelters. But Only is here to help! By donating $10 to Only (either online or on-site at our performances), Only will donate one box of their sustainable cotton tampons, and one box of their sustainable cotton pads to the Food Bank! So bring what you can tonight, or donate online through Only - every little bit goes towards fighting period poverty in Ottawa.
