SINCE 1999, Project Winter Survival and our team of volunteers & donors have assembled and distributed close to 45,000 Winter Survival Kits. These kits provide warmth and essential supplies needed for the homeless and less fortunate to survive on the streets. These kits often make the difference between life and death.

EACH year close to 18,000 requests for these life saving kits were received from agencies that help the homeless. Our goal this year is to assemble and distribute more than 3500 kits to over 200 front line agencies, which include the Red Cross, Out of the Cold programs, the Salvation Army, Covenant House, local shelters, and outreach programs in the Greater Toronto Area. These agencies then distribute the kits to the most vulnerable people who are living on our streets.

Each kit includes 30+ essential items such as a sleeping bag, hat, gloves, scarf and more.
