Knit for Food Knit-a-thon is a 12 hour knitting marathon to raise funds and awareness for food insecurity. 100% of funds raised 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!!
In 2023 we raised $340,000!!!
That means knitters have raised over a million dollars with our knitting needles!! Can you even believe that?!

There are two ways to support the Knit-a-thon: You can sign up to knit/craft for 12 hours OR you can donate!
To sign up, simply click the JOIN THE KNIT-A-THON button, set up a profile and start fundraising!
To donate just click the DONATE button.

You can stay home and knit or gather with a group of crafty friends (or do some of both)!

🧶There will be Zoom programming in the morning and evening of the 23rd. See the schedule here.

🧶We will hear from the 4 organizations we are raising funds for, do bodywork to keep you healthy while you knit, and end the evening with a fantastic game show.

🧶Everyone who raises $100 or more will receive a link.

Thanks so much for supporting our effort to craft a better future.

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!
