We invite you to become a sponsor of the Franklin County CROP Hunger Walk, which helps to end hunger one step at a time. With your help, each year we raise funds for hunger programs in our area and around the world. A quarter of the funds raised support the work of Food Bank of Western Massachusetts, Franklin County Survival Center, West County Community Meals, Hilltown Food Pantry, and Greenfield Community Meals, which assist members of our community who are in need. The remainder of the funds supports the global work of CWS to empower local communities.

Last year, we raised over $20,000 for the hungry and had just over 100 walkers! Our goal for this year is to raise $25,000 with 125 Walkers! We need your support.

Donations to CWS for the CROP Hunger Walk are tax-deductible. The CWS tax identification number is #13-4080201. CWS is an international humanitarian organization, transforming communities around the globe through just and sustainable responses to hunger and poverty. displacement and disaster.

Our CROP Hunger Walk engages a broad cross-section of the community in service to the neediest of the world. It is an interfaith, community-oriented event that (1) raises funds to help hungry people, (2) raises awareness of hunger as an issue, (3) engages and trains volunteers for community service, and (4) brings together persons of many ages and backgrounds in a common endeavor.

Thank you for considering this invitation to continue to be a part of this community event.
