The Veterans' Tribute Luncheon is a fundraising event that allows Ottawa Inner City Ministries (OIM) to pay tribute to the brave men and women who served our country. A guest speaker will address attendees on the topic of Veteran homelessness.

Join us on October 31, 2025, at the Delta Hotel City Centre (101 Lyon St. N.) from 12:00 to 2:00 pm for this year's Veterans Tribute Luncheon, which will be at the beginning of Veterans' Week 2025.

Your presence at the IVOS Tribute Luncheon means the world to us, especially to the veterans who benefit from our programs and may be among our attendees. This event is vital for continuing our mission to support at-risk and homeless veterans in Ottawa. By joining us, you empower OIM and the IVOS program in four key ways:

  1. Directly Support Veterans: Every dollar raised goes straight to OIM's IVOS program, helping us continue to offer practical support, a weekly drop-in, and monthly movie nights to Veterans in need. Your attendance directly fuels these efforts and helps us offer camaraderie to reduce the isolation many of them face.
  2. Honour Our Heroes: The luncheon is also a dedicated time to pay tribute to the brave men and women who have served our nation in our program and beyond. It's your chance to show profound gratitude and acknowledge their sacrifices.
  3. Gain Valuable Insight: Hear from our keynote speaker and OIM's IVOS Coordinator, Lieutenant-General (Retired) Walter Semianiw. They'll offer a deeper understanding of the complex challenges Veterans face after their service.
  4. Learn About OIM's Impact: Since 1988, OIM has supported Ottawa's poor and homeless, making thousands of connections annually. The luncheon offers a glimpse into our broader initiatives and dedicated veteran-centric programs, including "Operation Road Home," which aims to find stable homes for homeless or precariously housed Veterans.
