Combatting hunger

Though it's true that a CROP Walk concerns food, the title means something quite different than what one might expect.

Created in 1969 by the Church World Service, an international ecumenical organization made up of 35 Protestant, Orthodox and Anglican denominations, a “CROP Walk” is an acronym for Communities Responding to Overcome Poverty.

Each year, approximately 2,000 CROP Hunger Walks, as they are popularly known, are held in the United States, and raise millions of dollars that are used to purchase food, plant seeds and irrigation systems in the United States and some 80 countries worldwide.
