CROP Hunger Walk 2024
On Sunday, October 27th you can join with other faith groups and community members to fight hunger and poverty in our community and worldwide by walking from St. Raymond’s Catholic Church (1100 Santa Cruz Ave. in Menlo Park) around a lovely residential area. Registration and music from the Stragglyrs starts at 1:00 PM and the walk begins at 2:00 PM. CROP stands for “Communities Responding to Overcome Poverty.” The money raised goes to two wonderful organizations: Church World Service and the Ecumenical Hunger Program in East Palo Alto. Both these groups let the people they serve set their own goals and they strive to solve problems sustainably. Bring the whole family and neighbors to enjoy the walk, and if you can’t come that day, you can make a donation to the FCCPA team or to an individual walker. Register as a walker or donate here.
