OTTO’S PLANET: DRIVEN FOR OUR COMMUNITY
A charitable division of Otto’s Ottawa since 1964


Otto's Planet supports the concept that we can all give more to make our community a better place.

For every car purchased at Otto's BMW or Otto's Subaru, the customer is presented with a list of Otto's causes. Whichever charity is chosen will be given a fixed donation amount through Otto's Planet. We have chosen these charities because we believe in the work they do. The causes that appear are non-profit, some are local to the Ottawa area and others operate at an international level. Continue reading here.
