Born out the Love Ottawa- Big Give initiative, we are continuing our on-going relationship with the students, teachers and staff at Frederick Banting Alternative School in Stittsville. This school provides an opportunity for students who may not have the chance to receive their secondary diploma by providing a flexible and supportive learning environment.  A dedicated group from Community Bible Church has been blessing these students with warm clothing, graduation gifts, and a warm and friendly environment while we serve monthly hot lunches throughout the school year.
