“It takes all of us to end childhood hunger. The Tools for Change spatula program and the power of our partnership with Williams Sonoma embodies this spirit perfectly,” said Billy Shore, founder and executive chair of Share Our Strength, the organization behind the No Kid Hungry campaign. “We’re grateful to Williams Sonoma year after year for providing the roster of celebrity spatula artists and its customers with the opportunity to support our nation’s kids. Each spatula sold means more kids have access to the food they need to thrive and the future they deserve.”

Celebrity spatula designers Kate Hudson, Common and P!NK also commented:

“I am so proud to support No Kid Hungry and partner with Williams Sonoma in the fight against childhood hunger. I hope our spatula is a reminder of the importance of making sure that no child goes hungry. When kids have access to three meals a day, they can dream big and have great futures. The possibilities are endless.” – Kate Hudson

“Food is essential for life; it's one of the basic elements that every human being needs. When I’m hungry, I can’t function at the level I want to. It’s unacceptable that kids in our country live with hunger. That’s why I’m grateful to be a part of this initiative to support No Kid Hungry’s work and spread supreme love to our nation’s children, so they have the food they need to grow up happy, healthy and strong.” – Common

“I’m proud to partner with Williams Sonoma and No Kid Hungry, because I was once a kid who faced food insecurity. Willow and I both designed spatulas this year, and each one you purchase helps provide 40 meals to kids in need.” – P!NK

The products from the 2023 Tools for Change fundraising program are now available online and at all Williams Sonoma retail locations while supplies last.
