Share this story
Calling all OCH tenants! Are you ready to get creative for the holidays? 🎄
The Holiday Card Contest is back in the fall issue of the OCH Tenant Newsletter!
Last year, tenants from across our communities shared their drawings, photos, poems, and stories to help create the OCH Holiday Card. We loved seeing your creativity, and we can’t wait to do it again!
Your creation could be featured on the 2026 OCH Holiday Card!
Not one, but TWO $25 gift cards are up for grabs!
Two winners will be chosen at random from all eligible entries.
Deadline to enter: November 20, 2026
It’s easy! Show us what the holiday season means to you.
You can:
- 🎨 Draw or paint a holiday scene.
- 📸 Take a winter or holiday photo.
- ✏️ Write a short poem or story.
- 🌟 Share another creative idea inspired by the holidays!
You can use the drawing space in the fall Tenant Newsletter or create something on your own.
All ages are welcome! You don’t need to be an artist. Just have fun and use your imagination!
You can send your entry by:
- Email: editor@och.ca
- Mail: Attn: Jennifer M | Ottawa Community Housing, 39 Auriga Dr. | Ottawa, ON K2E 7Y8
📬 Don’t Forget Your Address!
When you send your creation, please include:
- Your full name
- Your full OCH mailing address
We need this information to confirm that you are an OCH tenant and to mail your gift card if you win.
📅 Enter by November 20, 2026!
Get your crayons, cameras, and imagination ready!
Good luck to everyone; we can’t wait to see your creations!
