You Give, We Give 2026

March 30, 2026

Update September 2026:

Together, We Raised More Than $61,000 for Our Community

The 2026 edition of You Give, We Give has come to a close, and we’re proud to share that together we raised $61,013.57 in support of three exceptional Ottawa organizations: Belong Ottawa, Youville Centre, and the Ottawa Humane Society.

Each of these organizations plays a vital role in our community. From supporting individuals experiencing homelessness and housing insecurity, to empowering young mothers and their children, to providing care and advocacy for animals in need, their work makes Ottawa a stronger and more compassionate place to live.

The success of this year’s campaign reflects the generosity of our clients, colleagues, partners, friends, and community members who chose to support causes that matter. Every contribution helped strengthen the impact of these organizations and the important services they provide throughout the year.

While our campaign has concluded, the need for support continues. We encourage those who are able to consider making a direct donation, volunteering their time, or learning more about the important work being carried out by these organizations in our community.

On behalf of everyone at Hobin Architecture, thank you for helping make this year’s campaign such a success.

Together, we can make a difference.

“Youville Centre has been a place of growth. Little did I know, I have a chance to step forward, succeed, and to find the strength to be the best person I can be; not only for myself, but for my son!”

Supporting essential care, dignity, and second chances across our community.

Across Ottawa, community organizations are providing essential services that depend on strong, sustained local support.

Now in its sixth year, Hobin Architecture’s annual fundraising initiative, You Give, We Give, is calling on our community to support three essential organizations serving Ottawa: Belong Ottawa, the Ottawa Humane Society, and Youville Centre. In a time of uncertainty, these organizations are experiencing increased demand for their services and need community support more than ever.

To help strengthen their impact, Hobin Architecture has pledged to match first‑time donations up to $45,000 until July 1, 2026. This matching initiative is designed to amplify every contribution, allowing these vital organizations to continue providing care, compassion, and opportunity to people—and animals—across our city.

  • Belong Ottawa provides safe, inclusive spaces and community‑based services for people facing homelessness, precarious housing, and social marginalization, offering meals, basic supports, and programming that foster dignity, wellness, and connection.
  • The Ottawa Humane Society leads Ottawa in building a humane and compassionate community for all animals by providing shelter and medical care to animals in need, promoting responsible pet ownership, and advocating for improved animal welfare through education and community programs.
  • Youville Centre supports young mothers and their children by delivering integrated education, mental‑health, child‑care, and parenting programs that help families build stability, achieve educational goals, and create brighter futures together.

 

By lending your support, you can help sustain the vital work of these charities and make a lasting impact on our community


Since 2021, Hobin Architecture’s “You Give, We Give” campaign has matched $170,000 in donations to local charities.Combined with our matched donations, the You Give, We Give program has generated over half a million dollars in donations while raising awareness of these important local charities.

Please give generously and we will do the same.

This spring, Hobin Architecture pledges to match new donations to three vital organizations in our community.

Here’s how it works. Visit the links below to make your first-time donation before July 1. Hobin Architecture will then make an equivalent donation to each charity, up to $45,000 in total.

This program is intended to stimulate new support for these organizations in need. Therefore, we are limiting the matching program to new donors. If you have donated before, please continue to do so—your financial support means the world to these organizations.
