Happy Thanksgiving 2024 from Adafruit!

The folks here are Adafruit would like to wish each and every one of you a Happy Thanksgiving! We would also like to thank you for the support – we’re excited to keep growing with you.

To celebrate Thanksgiving this year we wanted to focus on all that we’re thankful for, so we asked our team to share! You can see their responses below.

Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Adafruit!

This year I’m thankful for antique picture hanging rail hardware, painter’s tape, crocs, public libraries, and old friends.

It has been a monumental year and I am thankful for family – old and NEW near and far!

I am thankful for health and rent stabilized apartments. And that the new wicked movie is out.

I’m so, so grateful to get the chance to work on the innovative cusp of technology. As an artist, I love having access to new and exciting DIY tech the moment it’s created, and having the chance to show the world new ways to create.

I am thankful for a reasonably priced place to live and I am thankful for the love of my precious children

I am thankful for my beautiful wife, whom I had the pleasure of marrying this year, and hoping I can continue to make her as happy as she makes me.

I am grateful for new friends and rekindling old friendships.
I am grateful for love, growth and support.
I am grateful for my family and extended family.
I am grateful for all the blessings and lessons of this year,
and for what the future will bring.

I’m thankful for my little rescue dog, who has lived with me for over two years now, and who brings joy to my life every day!
