“As Mayor of Ottawa, I am proud to join the Mayors Alliance to End Childhood Hunger. In Ottawa and across Franklin County, one in five children experiences food insecurity, and that is a reality we cannot ignore. By working alongside local nonprofits, schools, and community partners, we are investing in the long-term health and success of our community. This commitment reflects our shared responsibility to ensure every child has access to the nutrition they need to learn, grow, and thrive. Together, we can create meaningful, measurable change that strengthens the future of Ottawa.”
