Tink Knit Details
Tink Knit is a Brown University & Rhode Island School of Design student-run nonprofit that enables low-income single mothers in Rhode Island to make a supplemental income through knitting. Partnering with Healthy Families at Meeting Street, Tink Knit provides over 50 single mothers part-time income at home while taking care of their kids and empowers them to develop sustainable skills with the ultimate goal of becoming financially independent. The finished hand-knitted hats, scarves and headbands are sold at the Brown University and Rhode Island School of Design bookstores, Tink's E-commerce shop, and pop-up sale events. Over the past two years, Tink Knit has raised over $20,000 in revenue and returned over $14,000 directly to the mothers. Tink Knit won the 2015 McKinsey Women's Impact Award/2015 & 2016 Walmart's Women's Economic Empowerment Award and operates with a strong board of directors including professionals working at McKinsey, JP Morgan, Disney Corporate Strategy, as well as renowned entrepreneurship professors at Brown University.
