Other fall recipients include Soul Trak Outdoors, which seeks to support an Environmental Leadership Cohort project focused on BIPOC collegiate students in the Washington, D.C. area, and The Howl Experience, which received an in-kind grant of 25 pairs of Kahtoola’s MICROspikes for its Canadian environmental youth program.

Through the Kahtoola Philanthropy Program, Kahtoola donates at least 1% of annual sales three times a year to organizations that support the outdoor community, promote environmental responsibility, or preserve indigenous traditions.
