On May 31 2007, United Way Centraide Ottawa celebrated the work of Ottawa's dedicated citizens and organizations at the Community Builder of the Year Awards.

This event was a celebration of the organizations, partnerships, agenc ies, and neighbourhood groups that strive tirelessly, passionately, and collaboratively to make Ottawa a better place to live, work and raise a family.

Awards were presented in several categories. No Community Left Behind was awarded the CBA – Capacity Building. No Community Left Behind is a social development initiative that aims to prevent, control, and reduce violent crime, drug abuse, and gang activity among youth in designated high-crime neighbourhoods. The program has operated since 2005 in the Banff-Ledbury community and since 2006 in the Heatherington, Confederation Court and Russell Heights communities.
