CREATE-A-THON AUGUST 4-18,2025
Since 2022, K4P has held the CAT to raise money and gather items for the cold weather months. This is our BIGGEST fundraising event of the year and we need the support of our Peace Pods, makers, and community members to help us reach our goal.
What Items Do We Need?
While this is a MAJOR fundraiser for Knitting4Peace and funds raised during this event help us continue our mission, we know that not everyone can support us with a financial gift. That's why this year we are putting EXTRA emphasis on sending us items.
During the Create-A-Thon we are making a call for the following 3 items:
kid's hats
kid's scarves (we have plenty adult)
Peace Pals
Each donation of items sent to our Denver HQ between July 1 and September 1 will be entered to win a door prize! Winners will be randomly selected in September and we will send you a prize. We have tote bags, great mugs, yarn, notions bags, and more!
How Much Do We Need To Raise?
This year we need to raise $7,500!
Each financial supporter of the CAT will be entered into a drawing to win one of several amazing door prizes!
The Create-A-Thon (August 4-18, 2025) is a virtual event held on Givebutter, a safe donation site where you can donate to help support the mission of K4P. This is the time to ask your church groups, coffee friends, and family members to support the nonprofit you care so deeply about. There won't be awards for highest fundraiser this year, but instead ALL who donate are entered into the prize drawing set to take place in September.
You can donate by going HERE.
What Free Workshops Can I Attend?
This year the CAT will have more 2 FREE WORKSHOPS! The first is a talk with Hannah Thiessen, one of the creatives behind By Hand Serial. This journal explores different travel locations and the creatives who live there. We will also have a Finger Puppet workshop with Ravelry maker, Natasha. This is your chance to meet the other change-makers in the K4P community.
You can register for those virtual events NOW by going HERE.
Can I Buy Merchandise?
During the Create-A-Thon we also offer some fabulous merchandise through the online retailer, Bonfire. Bonfire produces and ships our merchandise for us, which saves us a ton of time and money. This year's items are quite chić! There are a ton of new offerings and you can choose from hats, notions bags, baby onesies, and MORE! Each item you purchase through Bonfire helps support K4P.
Wear your K4P pride wherever you go! The Bonfire campaign is LIVE so you can start ordering your goodies NOW. Items will ship by the end of August!
