Caring for Our Community — Every Day of the Year

At Chabad Cares Ottawa, we are dedicated to supporting individuals and families across the community through a wide range of meaningful social services.

Each week, Rabbi Caytak visits patients at both the Ottawa Hospital and the Queensway Carleton Hospital, offering emotional and spiritual support, sharing food packages, and providing the comfort of prayer. Over the course of the year, these visits touch the lives of hundreds of patients and their loved ones.

During Jewish holidays, we bring joy and connection to local retirement centers through uplifting programs filled with music, learning, and festive celebrations — creating special moments for the young at heart.

On a monthly basis, Rabbi Caytak also travels to correctional facilities in Kingston, offering guidance and support to Jewish inmates, helping them maintain a connection to their faith and heritage.

At Chabad Cares Ottawa, our mission is simple: to be there for those who need us — with compassion, dignity, and care.
