SUN, 29 OCT, 1-4 PM: Annual CROP Walk
The annual CROP Hunger Walk is a coming together of several faith organizations to bring attention to world hunger, both globally and locally.
This outdoor event includes a walk of varying distances that give members of different congregations a chance to meet and talk with each other.
The starting point for the 11th Annual Mid-Peninsula CROP Hunger Walk will be at St. Raymond Parish in Menlo Park (1100 Santa Cruz Ave.).
You can join the walk from 1-4 PM on Sunday, October 29, which is the Sunday following our annual congregational meeting.
The CROP Walk was organized in 1969 by Church World Service (CWS), a multi-faith, international, non-profit organization.
The CWS seeks sustainable solutions to hunger, poverty, displacement, and disaster.
Locally, 25 percent of the funds raised from the Mid-Peninsula walk will go to the EHP - Ecumenical Hunger Program located in East Palo Alto.
If you would like to make a contribution, Bruce Christenson will have an envelope at refreshments following the services in October which you can leave your donation.
Checks can be made out to: CROP Walk/ CWS
If you would like to participate in the walk on the Sunday, October 29 or have questions about the event, please e-mail Bruce.
Connect with others in your area and raise funds to fight hunger in the United States and around the world.
