Dear Friends and Supporters, As we reflect on the journey of iHateTheCold, which has now drawn to a close after seven warming years, we would like to acknowledge you for supporting our business so we could make a commitment to support the community - a cornerstone of our mission. Over these years, iHateTheCold has been involved with the most generous foundations in the world who are extended beyond our business.

We are proud to share that we donated tens of thousands of hand warmers to those in need, through several charitable foundations who help save lives everyday. We wish to express our deep appreciation to:

City Street Outreach: For their dedication to providing warmth and essentials to the homeless.

Engage and Change's Project Winter Survival: Where our contributions have helped equip survival kits for winter.

The Scott Mission: Ensuring our rechargeable hand warmers provided warmth and connectivity.

Good Shepherd Ministries: For their comprehensive support to those in need, where our hand warmers have contributed to their efforts in offering comfort during cold times.

Haven on the Queensway: Supporting their local community and beyond.

Our focus was never on the spotlight but on ensuring that warmth reached those who needed it most. Your support enabled these donations, making a tangible difference in the community. This letter is not just about our contributions but about thanking all of you who were part of this journey. Although iHateTheCold has concluded its operations, the legacy of our collective efforts continues through these organizations. Thank you for being with us. While iHateTheCold's chapter has ended, the warmth shared will continue to resonate through the compassionate work of these foundations.

With gratitude,

Kai
