What is the CROP Hunger Walk?

  • CROP stands for Communities Responding to Overcome Poverty.
  • The Walk unites community members in walking together to take a stand against hunger in our world. Together we raise awareness and funds for international relief and development, as well as local hunger-fighting. (More information at http://www.churchworldservice.org/CROP/)

Past Success

  • Since 1975 we have organized the annual Washtenaw County CROP Hunger Walk as an interfaith response to local and world hunger. Over the last 33 years walkers from some 50 area congregations and schools have raised more than one million dollars to assist both local and international agencies in relieving hunger and addressing its root causes
  • In 2007 we raised a record-setting $70,000+ with over 600 walkers
