Faces of Hope Campaign: Featuring Jodi McCullough and The Jordan Leigh Foundation

We are thrilled to announce that our founder, Jodi McCullough, has been featured in the Faces of Hope campaign by our community partner, Shepherds of Good Hope. This campaign, which launched on March 8, 2025, highlights Jodi's heartfelt story about her sister Jordan's connection to Shepherds of Good Hope and how our organization, The Jordan Leigh Foundation, became involved.

The Faces of Hope campaign aims to shed light on the real impact of supportive housing by sharing personal stories from family members and workers at Shepherds of Good Hope. Contrary to common belief, Shepherds is not just a shelter; they provide a wide range of services for the underserved community in Ottawa, including permanent housing, harm reduction programs, and community kitchens. These services offer the homeless a safe place to go both day and night.

We are incredibly proud of Jodi for sharing Jordan's story and for her unwavering advocacy for change.
& We are immensely proud to be a partner of Shepherds of Good Hope and their mission.
This is just the beginning of our journey together.

Join us as we give one deserving person a makeover, which includes a fresh haircut, a new phone, and a boost of self-confidence! We believe that self-care can make a profound difference, and this makeover is just one way we aim to uplift those in need.

Watch and be inspired as we show that everyone deserves a chance to feel valued and cared for. Together, we can make a difference! 💖✨

On Monday, May 27th, we had the incredible opportunity to be featured in a 7-minute interview on Rogers Daytime Ottawa News with Derick Fage. We showcased some of our beautiful products, discussed our nonprofit and the inspiration behind starting it, talked about our upcoming partnerships, and highlighted our GIVEAWAY contest. We are so thankful for this experience and the chance to share our mission with a wider audience.
Stay tuned for more exciting updates! 💋

On April 11th, 2024, the Jordan Leigh Foundation traveled to Toronto to distribute our RISE UP bags filled with essential items to the homeless community.

We partnered with Reedinthestreets, who graciously guided us through the city and documented the event on video.

Too often, people experiencing homelessness are overlooked, despite being the ones who need help the most. Assisting the homeless is crucial because it addresses immediate needs and provides dignity, hope, and a sense of community to those who are often marginalized. By offering support and essential resources, we can help pave the way for long-term solutions.

This initiative would not have been possible without the support shown to The RISE UP Collection and the generous donations we received. A big thank you to our supporters for rising up! 💋

This achievement is as much yours as it is ours. 🙏

Lets continue to do important work together! 💪
