CROP Hunger Walks in the United States

I just found an article that Kathryn McConnell wrote in October about Crop Hunger Walks in 2007.

Church World Service sponsors these walks. Like most charity walks and marathons, walkers get donations from people for walking. Of course, the walks themselves become major local events, which raises awareness about world hunger and poverty. People who hear about the event or attend may also donate. Additionally, raising awareness will spark action.

According to CWS, over 2,000 of these CROP Hunger Walks will have taken place in 2007. I assume that number does not include other types of charity marathons for world hunger or poverty.

I commend both the people who participate in these types of events as well as those who organize them. I hope they raise a lot of funds for the fight against world hunger. I also hope that they enjoy themselves and feel good.

If you know of any upcoming world hunger walks or marathons, or if you want to organize one, come tell us about it in the Hunger and Poverty Forums. It’s completely free, and all viewpoints are welcome.
