Sunday, October 18th: 2009 SF Crop Hunger Walk
CROP Hunger Walks help children and families worldwide -- and right here in the U.S. -- to have food for today, while building for a better tomorrow. Each year some two million CROP Walkers, volunteers, and sponsors put their hearts and soles in motion, raising over $16 million per year to help end hunger and poverty around the world -- as well as here in our backyard of San Francisco. Come and be a part of this walk to end hunger on October 18!

The 2009 San Francisco CROP Walk, our 30th year, will benefit the San Francisco Food Bank, the San Francisco Interfaith Council Winter Shelter Program, as well as Church World Service, the sponsoring organization that provides a broad range of poverty fighting projects around the world.

This year’s Crop Walk will be a 4-mile walk around Lake Merced. Sign up online as an individual or a group at www.cropwalksf.org, or register by 1 P.M. on the day of the walk. For more info, contact: John Ahlbach at jahlbach@riordanhs.org or call (650) 355-0215.
