Knitting has been so much for me, more than the knit or purl stitch. Since I found my love of knitting, my confidence has improved. I have a better self image and being a part of the knitting community helped me find my voice. I have never been a fan of the term influencer; however, if I can convince you to do something or support something good. I have no complaints.

This year marks the fourth year I will participate in the Knit for Food Knit-a-thon. I am proud that I can knit for such a cause and appreciate your support. Hunger has many faces. Faces you have seen and didn’t know the food insecurity existed. These are the people we will be helping during this knit-a-thon. Yes, your neighbor has a car and they live next door to you; because of that you automatically think food insecurity doesn’t apply. It’s not what you think.

Over the past three years, with your help, I have raised $80,729 to help put a dent in food insecurities. This year, with all the games being played with federal spending, we are needed more than ever. Imagine children that look forward to eating in school, because there isn’t any at home. How about the seniors who depend on Meals on Wheels so they can eat.
