26th Annual CROP Walk

Sunday, April 10th at 1 pm

Haverford Township residents of all ages are invited to join in the 26th annual Crop Walk, on Sunday, April 10, at 1 pm. The CROP Walk is sponsored locally by the Haverford Clergy Association, to help fight hunger here at home and globally. The 2.5 mile walk begins at the Grime Center at St. Denis. Walkers will enjoy a walk through the heart of Havertown while raising money to help feed hungry people.

Tim Denny and Rev. Mary Jane Kirby of Union Methodist Church are the local CROP Walk coordinators. Over the past 25 years over $125,000 has been raised by local walkers and their sponsors. "Our goal is to have healthy fun and help to alleviate hunger at home and around the world" said Denny. "We want to make it easy to participate. This is a great activity for families, youth groups, girl scouts, cub scouts, sports teams or caring individuals. Walkers can pick up sponsor donation envelopes at their church or from Mary Jane or me; or simply get sponsors and bring the money with them to the Grimes Center on Sunday. We will give them a receipt for their funds.
