Public Outreach
Sagga & Co. is committed to fostering resilience and empowerment within Ottawa’s diverse communities. Headquartered in this vibrant city, we recognize the pressing needs of vulnerable populations and actively engage with local resources to deliver meaningful support. Our outreach initiatives reflect our dedication to social responsibility, aligning with our core values of integrity, innovation, and excellence.
Ottawa’s communities face multifaceted challenges, particularly among newcomers, seniors, and individuals experiencing financial hardship or housing instability. New immigrants, often supported by organizations like the Ottawa Chinese Community Service Centre (OCCSC), seek assistance with settlement, language acquisition, and employment. Seniors and adults with disabilities, served by centers like the Eastern Ottawa Resource Centre (EORC), require access to healthcare, mobility support, and social programs. Additionally, families in areas such as Britannia Woods and Pinecrest Terrace rely on food banks and community hubs to address food insecurity and foster connection, highlighting the need for comprehensive support in these underserved regions.
