The Blossomland CROP Hunger Walk in Saint Joseph MI will be held on May 21st, 2023. 1 pm registration, 2pm kick off, 2:15pm CROP Hunger Walk.
Looking to make a difference in our local community and in communities worldwide, the Blossomland CROP Hunger Walk has set a goal of 70 Walkers and hopes to raise $25,000 to help end hunger and poverty through long-term sustainable approaches to significantly reduce or eliminate hunger. A portion of the funds raised here in Blossomland will go to the hunger-fighting work and food panties of Benton Harbor’s Soup Kitchen, Bread of Heaven Food Pantry at the United Methodist Church in Berrien Springs, The Fairplain Presbyterian Food Pantry, and The Salvation Army – Benton Harbor.
Last year, 63 Walkers raised more than $$23,222 through this CROP Hunger Walk.
This year Blossomland and some thousand other communities nationwide are joining together in interfaith CROP Hunger Walks around the theme “Ending hunger one step at a time.” Many of the Walkers will be wearing t-shirts proclaiming their solidarity with the millions of neighbors around the world who have to walk to live — as well as with the millions served by local food pantries, food banks and meal sites here in the U.S. These local ministries share in the funds raised by CROP Hunger Walks.
From combating droughts in Nicaragua to providing agricultural training in Indonesia to stocking shelves in hundreds of food pantries across the United States, CROP Hunger Walks are fighting hunger.
CROP Hunger Walks help children and families worldwide – and right here in Blossomland. Local efforts are making a huge difference, and so can you. Learn more about the cause at www.crophungerwalk.org
