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!!!
In 2024 we raised $379,010!!!
That means knitters have raised over $1,250,000 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 A TEAM or FUNDRAISE buttons, set up a profile and start fundraising! 
To donate just click the DONATE button.

Knit for Food was founded by knitwear designer Laura Nelkin and was inspired by her daughter’s AmeriCorps position at their local food bank during the pandemic summer of 2020. Knit for Food is run by a small but mighty team of volunteers who put their all into ensuring the success of this fundraiser year after year!

Please consider donating if you can!
