There’s something special about seeing the community come together for traditions like the Suit Race during Crab Fest. From the laughter and friendly competition to the cheering from the sidelines, events like these remind us that Kodiak is more than just a place we live, it’s a community we build together.

Moments like these strengthen connections across generations, create lasting memories, and showcase the spirit that makes Kodiak so unique. Thank you to everyone who raced, volunteered, and cheered on the participants. Community thrives when we celebrate together.

What was your favorite Suit Race moment this year? 🦀🎉

Thank you Kodiak for showing up for our annual Crawl-The-Rock event!! We had 10 crawlers and 10 toddlers make, or attempt to make 😅, their way across the finish line despite the wind and cold!

Donations were generously matched by Credit Union 1 😍🤩 and we thank them for their continued support! All your donations continue to support our mommas, families and babies!!!

Thank you to all our community volunteers and volunteers from Credit Union 1 who made this fun family event possible!

We look forward to seeing you at our next race, our annual Milk Run, September 12!

As another incredible Kodiak Crab Festival comes to a close, we’re reflecting on the power of collaboration, community, and what’s possible when organizations come together with a shared purpose.

The Kodiak Community Foundation was proud to participate in this year’s Crab Fest Parade alongside many of our nonprofit partners. While the parade is a celebration of Kodiak’s rich traditions, it also serves as a reminder of the countless organizations working year-round to strengthen our island community.

This year taught us so much about the value of partnership. We saw firsthand how nonprofits can amplify one another’s missions, share audiences, build relationships, and create a greater collective impact than any one organization could accomplish alone. The connections made during Crab Fest have inspired us to think even bigger about how we can support, showcase, and elevate the nonprofits serving Kodiak.

At KCF, our commitment goes beyond grantmaking. We believe in helping organizations tell their stories, increase visibility, engage the community, and build lasting support. Crab Fest reminded us that when we create opportunities for nonprofits to stand together, the entire community benefits.

As we look ahead to next year, we’re excited to explore new ways to represent, celebrate, and champion the incredible nonprofit work happening across Kodiak. The ideas are already flowing, and we can’t wait to build on the momentum created this year.

Thank you to the Kodiak Chamber of Commerce for organizing another fantastic festival and creating opportunities for community connection. Events like Crab Fest strengthen the bonds that make Kodiak such a special place to live, work, and serve.

A special thank you to our nonprofit partners who joined us in celebrating community:

•Special Olympics Alaska Kodiak Community
•Kodiak Animal Shelter
•Kodiak Reentry, Inc.
• Girl Scouts of Alaska
• The Salvation Army Kodiak Food Bank
• KMXT Radio Kodiak Alaska
• Brother Francis Shelter Kodiak
• Native Village of Afognak

Together, we’re building a stronger, more connected Kodiak, and we’re just getting started.
