Little Traverse CROP Hunger Walk
All are welcome to the Little Traverse CROP Hunger Walk that will raise money to alleviate hunger around the world and locally. This is a non-competitive three-mile walk following through the historic Chautauqua community of Bay View. For those with mobility limitations, there is a one-mile shorter alternative route, as well as an option to rock on the porch of Evelyn Hall while others are walking. Refreshments and live music greet walkers upon their return to Evelyn Hall.
This is one of about 500 CROP walks held each year around the United States to raise money to support worldwide and local efforts to combat hunger and food insecurity. CROP walks support Church World Service, an interdenominational faith-based organization transforming communities around the globe through just and sustainable responses to hunger, poverty, displacement and disaster. One quarter of the funds raised by the Little Traverse CROP Walk are given to Harbor Springs-based Manna Food Project to support their efforts to provide better access to food in Emmet, Charlevoix and Antrim counties.
Those who wish to support this effort with a tax-deductible donation may sponsor a CROP walker by giving them a check payable to CWS/CROP, or make an online donation at https://crophungerwalk.org/petoskey, where gifts may be designated to a specific fundraising team (church or organization). Donations are also accepted at registration starting at 8:30 am on the walk day. For more information about this event, including opportunities for sponsorship by businesses or service organizations, or to form a team representing a church or organization, please contact Little Traverse CROP Hunger Walk coordinator Rob Scarrow, phone: 267-475-4645 email: rscarrow@icloud.com.Little Traverse CROP Hunger WalkDate and Time
