As we near the end of May, we just wanted to say THANK YOU for the ongoing support for our Mother's Day Giving Campaign - so many thoughtful messages of encouragement and hope have been shared along with financial support for our programs and services.

Please help us spread the news to new donors - Hobin is matching donations from new donors made until the end of June.

This week was a very busy week at the Centre, with many special activities leading up to Mother's Day, and acknowledging Mental Health Week. Not pictured here, but clients also enjoyed ceramic painting, and a crochet workshop thanks to Fil-Anthropy Ottawa.

This Mother's Day we honor all the different forms that nurturing love takes. We know our clients felt love from our community this week, as many of them look forward to celebrating their first Mother's Day with their babies. Thank you for the support, we are truly grateful.

At Youville Centre, Mother’s Day is a very special occasion — so much so that we celebrate it all month long; for all of May 2026!

This May, we are happy to introduce Julie, a former client from 2010-2011 who has kindly shared her story for our campaign this year. As a mom, what Julie wants most in this world is for her child to feel safe, secure, and loved. Julie’s journey at Youville Centre allowed her to provide opportunities for her daughter to grow, thrive, and learn; and she is growing up with a bright future ahead of her.
Julie didn’t do this alone — help from donors like you made it possible.

When you choose to make a donation to Youville Centre, your contribution is making it possible for young parents like Julie to succeed in ways they never thought possible. The impact of your gift doesn’t stop there; you are also making a healthy, bright future possible for the children of Youville’s young mothers — children like Julie’s daughter Mia.

Please read Julie's Story of hope on our website here: https://www.youvillecentre.org/ways-to-give/help-us-grow/ and consider donating today.

This week, we’re celebrating the incredible volunteers who make Youville Centre shine! ✨

We are grateful for our amazing team of volunteers who support us in our Child Development Program, with our SWAP (second hand donation program), our volunteer Board of Directors, and those that lend a hand when we need it for other random tasks, such as photography or supporting a fundraising event - like the Italian Dinner this past weekend.

Your commitment strengthens our programs, enriches our community, and helps create brighter futures. Thank you for your generosity, your leadership, and your unwavering support. Thank you for showing up, lifting others up, and helping us create a space where families can thrive. We appreciate you more than words can say.
