2024 Impact Report
Your Donations in Action, Making a Difference.
Your donations support essential programs and special initiatives that enhance care and contribute to residents’ engagement in purposeful activities, feelings of wellness and belonging, and their families’ peace of mind.
What we Fund
Your donation supports the delivery of first-rate, compassionate care, enriches programming and contributes to the warmth and vibrancy of our Home
St. Patrick’s Home is blessed with a family of supporters who are devoted to the health and wellbeing of the 288 residents that reside here. They give to St. Pat’s because they’ve seen first-hand how their donations enhance residents’ lives and contribute to the spirit of our Home.
9&DINE
The Fifth Annual 9&DINE for St. Pat’s
The 9&DINE for St. Patrick’s Home is truly unique. It provides a social golf experience that’s a hit with seasoned and emerging golfers alike. Our guests appreciate the mid-afternoon start, on-course contests and surprise pit stops, the Patio & Pints reception with live music, and of course sharing good food with great people.
March 2025
We’re pleased to share this special report, 2024 By the Numbers, to summarize how community donations provided St. Patrick’s Home with essential funds for spiritual and religious care programs, community and social engagement initiatives, music therapy, concerts and special performances, the purchase of urgently-needed medical equipment, and more.
The statistics listed in the report provide a snapshot of the impact that your donations have on the health, well-being and quality of life of our residents, and the warmth and vibrancy of our Home. What the report doesn’t capture, is how each program and special initiative made our residents feel, or how their engagement in religious and spiritual services, music therapy, or a special concert lent structure and purpose to their days, and supported meaningful engagement with their loved ones, co-residents, and the broader community.
So, I invite you to read the report, visualize your donations in action, and realize the value of every donation you make to St. Patrick’s Home of Ottawa Foundation.
Without you, and the support of our community, these essential resources simply wouldn’t exist! Imagine how different life at St. Pat’s would be! I simply can’t.
And so, I want to thank you for making St. Pat’s a priority; and helping to ensure the continuity of the vital programs summarized in this report.
Here’s to doing more good together in 2025 and 2026!
Thank you!
Meg Friedman
Executive Director, St. Patrick’s Home of Ottawa Foundation
