Burke/Fairfax CROP Hunger Walk

CROP walks are community-based events held in cities and towns across the United States. The Burke-Fairfax Walk is one of over 1,400 CROP Hunger Walks held each year as part of a nationwide effort to raise money and awareness for hunger relief. It’s sponsored by Church World Service, a faith-based organization transforming communities around the globe through just and sustainable responses to hunger, poverty, displacement and disaster. Walkers and their sponsors help to provide food and water, as well as resources that empower people to meet their own needs—from seeds and tools, to wells and water systems, to technical training and micro-enterprise loans. Each local CROP Hunger Walk also supports its own community by giving back 25 percent of the funds raised to local hunger-fighting programs. 

The most recent CROP Walk took place on November 3, 2024.
