With this year’s theme of Old Hollywood, the dress code was heavy on the stilettos and light on the steel toes at Habitat for Humanity Greater Ottawa’s 11th annual signature gala.

The non-profit organization was back at the Canadian War Museum on Saturday night with a crowd of 330, hoping to raise between $75,000 and $80,000. The evening was also a celebration of the group’s 23 years of building homes for families living in need in the greater Ottawa area, with help from its volunteers, supporters, suppliers and tradespeople.

Seen at the Steel Toes and Stilettos Gala were such co-presenting sponsors as Dennis Laurin of Laurin General Contractor and the folks from BMO. Also present was Habitat for Humanity’s board chair, Bob Ridley, president of the Greater Ottawa Home Builders’ Association.

Back to emcee the night was Lianne Laing, host of CTV Morning Live.
