Tulipathon Totals 2019
We are thrilled to announce our highest total in the history of Tulipathon! Thanks to all of our supporters, we raised $37,579.05 for affordable housing in Ottawa.
We are grateful to everyone who made a donation, canvassed for contributions, volunteered, and showed up to walk among the tulips with us at Commissioners Park.
Congratulations to St. John the Evangelist Anglican Church, which raised an incredible $5,425 and won the Dr. Farook Tareen Award, which recognizes the faith group that collects the most money for Tulipathon each year.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for making Tulipathon a phenomenal success and for continuing to support our organization, and more importantly, our tenants.

2018 Farook Tareen Award
This award was created by MHI to honour the great legacy of the late Dr. Tareen and is presented each year to the highest fundraiser for affordable housing at Tulipathon. The winner for the 2018 Farook Tareen Award is the First Unitarian Congregation of Ottawa, which raised $2,741.00. (While St. John the Evangelist Anglican Church raised the most money with $4,534.00 collected, St. John's won the Farook Tareen Award in 2017 – and because the award can't be won two years in a row, First Unitarian will take home the Farook Tareen Award plaque at National Housing Day 2018.)
