CROP Walk
Communities Responding to Overcome Poverty
Crop Walk consists of neighbors from different faiths, cultures, and ages, walking together to take a stand against hunger. Funds raised will help support the activities of the local Inter-Faith Council for Social Service and national and international projects directed by Church World Service.
A four mile community walk is scheduled each year in the spring to raise funds for the work of this organization; the 2009 walk was held on March 22.
