Description:

The Eleventh Annual Cranksgiving Philadelphia is here, in hybrid form!

Traditionally, Cranksgiving is a food drive scavenger hunt where cyclists & other participants race around the city to purchase food from various “checkpoints.” All collected food is donated to Philabundance, our region's largest hunger relief organization. The inaugural Cranksgiving was put on by the NYC courier community in 1999, and has since grown to dozens of cities both here in the US and internationally.

We are excited to be back in person and riding again to eliminate hunger in Philadelphia, however we understand that not everyone feels comfortable or is able to join us in person at Tattooed Moms to celebrate afterwards! If you feel that you cant ride with us this year, or also desire to give directly to Philabundance this is your spot!

This "virtual grocery store" page has been set up by Philabundance, and allows you shop for items without having to haul it on your bike! All of the money you spend in this virtual grocery store will be donated directly to Philabundance, with no delay or added logistics of physically transporting your donated food to the Philabundance warehouse.

We're happy to keep this alive in Philadelphia for its tenth year, and we hope that you'll join us by donating what you can. To date, we have raised close to 20,000 pounds of food and over $27,000 in monetary donations to directly benefit Philabundance.

Thanks in advance for your generosity and continued support of Cranksgiving Philadelphia and of Philabundance.
