Each year, people of faith of various traditions gather to raise awareness and funds for local and global hunger through the CROPWalk. A one to three mile walk that happens in large cities and small towns throughout the United States, the CROPWalk is the oldest of all fundraising walks and funds both local food security efforts as well as global hunger relief programs.

The Phoenix CROPWAlk is Sunday, November 10, at Grace Lutheran Church, 1124 N Third Street, Phoenix, AZ 85004. Check in at 1:30 pm, and we start the walk at 2:00 pm.

This year, the local designee of the Phoenix CROPWalk is HART Pantry in Peoria which serves teenagers who experience food insecurity over the weekends when they cannot access school meals. Congregations may sign up as a team by contacting Pastor Sarah Stadler (pastorsarah@graceinthecity.com, 602-318-6876), or individuals may register on the CROPWalk website: www.crophungerwalk.org/phoenixaz. Those who wish to support our efforts but cannot walk are welcome to donate at www.crophungerwalk.org/phoenixaz!
