Transforming
empty spaces into homes.
It isn't just about furniture. Everyone deserves a safe place to sleep. Families gather around a table—to eat, laugh, and grow. With your help, we empower our vulnerable neighbours to make a fresh start.
Led by volunteers
Our work is possible thanks to the partnership of our dedicated volunteers.

Our programs
REFUGEE SERVICES
We provide shelter, food and refugee support in a family atmosphere so refugees may begin their journey to independence. Lean how you can help.
Furniture Bank
We help those who are transitioning to permanent housing make their new space feel like home. Our warehouse is stocked by the generous and gently used donations of our community.
For me, Matthew House Ottawa is more than just a place to live, it’s about feeling the love of God in the people around me.
