Tampa, FL

Cranksgiving is a bicycle scavenger hunt and food drive, and these events take place across the nation during the month of November to benefit local charities as they prepare for Thanksgiving. The 14th edition of Cranksgiving Tampa will continue to benefit Metropolitan Ministries.

So far, Cranksgiving Tampa has donated nearly 22,000 total pounds of food, including 661 frozen turkeys, to Metropolitan Ministries. We'll also be having a raffle again - this year, all of our raffle proceeds will continue to go to Reach St. Pete and their mobile Pop-Up Pantry, which provides fresh groceries free of cost to those who live in food deserts. This local nonprofit was founded in 2016 with the goal of bridging the gap between people and the resources they need to help prevent and alleviate homelessness, low-income, and at-risks situations. We've donated $10,650 to local charities through our raffle.
