About Us

A Newfoundland Society has existed in Ottawa for approximately 10 years, under the leadership of various Executives.  The present NLSO is governed by an interim Executive who has accepted the challenge to rebuild a Society.

The purpose of the NLSO is to promote the development of a network of Newfoundlanders living in Ottawa by providing our members the opportunity to foster friendships through the participation in social events that promote the Newfoundland culture.  A large potion of our efforts as a Society is to raise money for local and Newfoundland charities.

Membership is mainly comprised of Newfoundlanders yet we also welcome anyone wishing to aspire to the goals and aspirations of the Society.
