Together, Knoxville thrives.

Opportunity Knox is an online community resource that connects Knoxvillians to practical aid, stories of inspiration, and opportunities to give back.

This is our time. 

Opportunity knocks.

Why now?

Because there are amazing organizations, and amazing people, doing amazing things for our community.

The mission of Opportunity Knox is to connect you with the support, resources, and the deep sense of community needed to be healthy and successful during COVID-19 and beyond.

How can you give back?

Check in with someone daily.  You know how to use Zoom or Facetime by now.  See how they’re doing!

Shop local. Now more than ever, small businesses need our support.  Let them know you care. Buy their goods, order their food.  And tip well - the folks still bringing you all of this stuff are among the bravest out there.

Keep a healthy distance. If at all possible, stay home. If not for your sake, then for everyone else’s. But don’t stay alone. Join in a virtual meetup or event and find some friendly faces looking to see you!

Share your small joys.

Now more than ever, our community needs support and encouragement. Tell your story of hope in the face of adversity, or share something that made you smile. No joy is too small.
