Knit for Food Knit-a-thon is a 12 hour knitting
marathon to raise funds and awareness for food insecurity. The money we
raise will be equally divided between Feeding America, World Central
Kitchen, No Kid Hungry, and Meals on Wheels.
In 2021 we, the knitters, raised $265,810!!
In 2022 we raised $271,761!!
That means knitters raised over half a
million dollars with our knitting needles!! Can you even believe that?!

To learn more about these organizations:
Feeding America-
The Feeding America network is the nation’s largest domestic
hunger-relief organization, working to connect people with food and end
hunger. Donors, staff, and volunteers all play an important role in our
efforts to end hunger in the United States.
World Central Kitchen- WCK uses the power of food to heal communities and strengthen economies through times of crisis and beyond.
No Kid Hungry-
No child should go hungry in a nation as wealthy as ours. But millions
of kids are living with hunger right now because of the pandemic. With
No Kid Hungry, you can help change that for good.
Meals on Wheels-
Today, the average life expectancy is at a record high of 79 years. As
we get older, even the most independent among us may experience physical
declines or financial hardship that strips away our independence. Add
to that an increase in geographic mobility of our families, and the
result is millions of seniors left behind, hungry and alone. Meals On Wheels is here to help!
