COMMUNITY SPOTLIGHT
----------
Island Temperature Controls was honored to partner with Jawl Properties Ltd. for their Ukraine Relief support initiative on behalf of Compassionate Resource Warehouse (CRW) Ukraine Relief Project.
Thanks to generous donations from our Island Temperature Controls team and the impressive efforts by our front office staff, we were able to contribute 91 expertly packed and labeled care packages. Jawl Properties boxed up all the donations from various local businesses (they received 300 packages in total), and the shipment will be making its way to those in need. This was a great opportunity to provide meaningful support to a community faced with unimaginable challenges.
The Compassionate Resource Warehouse (CRW) is a registered Canadian charity based in Victoria, British Columbia. Since their launch in 1999, volunteers have collected, processed, packaged, and shipped a variety of donated goods and equipment to responsible charities and other groups around the world. These goods are distributed free of charge to people in need and provide opportunity and hope.
PAST SPOTLIGHTS
Island Temperature Controls was proud to sponsor two single parent families during the 2020 holiday season as we partnered with the 1Up Victoria Single Parent Resource Centre.
We provided each family a Holiday Hamper filled with gifts, grocery store gift cards, food and holiday spirit. We feel fortunate that we were able to support those who needed an extra hand during a year of unprecedented circumstances.
1Up Victoria Single Parent Resource Centre is a registered charitable organization that has been committed to serving the varied and changing needs of single parent families in the Greater Victoria area since 1978.
As the Fastball season comes to a close, we would like to wish Langford Lightning U16B a big congratulations on all their successes. This hard-working, dedicated group of young ladies and coaches went undefeated in districts to win gold and the sole bid to provincials in Kelowna! We will be cheering you on from home, best of luck team.
Langford Minor Fastball is South Vancouver Island's largest Minor Fastball club providing youth athletes a positive and rewarding environment for Fastpitch competition, development and fun. Their divisions range from Learn to Play (U6-U8) to U19 in levels from beginners to Competitive A.
During unprecedented times our community has shown resilience and strength, which is why this Thanksgiving we wanted to give back by holding a food drive. We collected non-perishable food items and monetary donations to help those who need an extra hand this year.
The Saanich Peninsula Lions Food Bank is a non-profit, charitable organization run by a Board of Directors. The Board oversees the Executive Director, staff, and volunteers who run the day-to-day operations of the food bank. The Food Bank has been operating since 1984 to help those hurt by a downturn in the economy.
"Our fathers, partners, brothers and friends are facing a health crisis, yet it’s rarely talked about. Men are dying too young. We can’t afford to stay silent."

The Foundation raises funds to deliver innovative, breakthrough research and support programs that enable men to live happier, healthier, and longer lives. Awareness and fundraising activities are run year-round by the Foundation, with the annual Movember campaign being globally recognized for its fun, disruptive approach to fundraising and getting men to take action for their health.
