Knifewear Cares!

At Knifewear, we like to put something back into the community and balance the karmic scales a bit.

2012 - The Servants Anonymous Society of Calgary [SAS]

In 2012 Knifewear will be helping to support Servants Anonymous. Half of all the proceeds earned from knife sharpening this year will be donated to this cause.

Servants Anonymous Society of Calgary [SAS], an Inglewood-based charity, is a non-profit agency formed in 1989 to address the issues of women involved in, or at risk of involvement in, the sex trade. The women helped by SAS have also experienced other related issues, including homelessness, poverty, substance addictions, and violence against women. SAS provides opportunities for women to reintegrate back into society by transitioning into a healthy lifestyle.

2011 - Japanese Tsunami/Earthquake Relief Fund

In 2011 - Knifewear donated 1/2 of all the money we made from knife sharpening to the Canadian Red Cross Japanese natural disaster relief fund.

The official total is in, and as of December 31st, 2011 - Knifewear donated a grand total of $19,316.36 to help the Red Cross efforts in Japan!

Thanks to all of our customers that brought their knives in to be sharpened.
