CROP Hunger Walks are community-based fundraising events held in cities and towns across the United States, created to support the global mission of Church World Service, a faith-based organization transforming communities around the globe through just and sustainable responses to hunger, poverty, displacement and disaster. After a CROP Hunger Walk ends, 25 percent of the funds raised is returned to the host community to support local hunger fighting efforts.
Portland’s 2022 CROP Walk begins at 12:30 p.m. for inspiration and directions. At 1 p.m., we will begin the three-mile walk to the waterfront and back. While walking together in community is encouraged, it is optional. This is a great event for all generations! All are welcome.
EMO’s Northeast Emergency Food Program will be receive 25 percent of all donations, as the local charity designated.
