CROP Hunger Walk

On one of the first sunny Sundays in recent months, a dedicated group of walkers from GRCC, ranging in age from 3 - 79+, joined new friends at Vincent United Methodist Church in Nutley for the CROP Hunger Walk 2026.

It was a beautiful day as our group walked through downtown Nutley (the rescheduled Nutley Car Show was a bonus) and Yantecaw Park and then back to the church. Walkers solicited donors and sponsors to help support Church World Service (CWS) -  faith-based organization providing global responses to hunger, poverty, displacement and disaster.

Why is this called the CROP Hunger Walk? The CROP Project began in 1947 when farmers were asked to donate food and seed crops to our hungry neighbors in post World War II Europe and Asia.  The very first walks took place in Bismark, ND (1969) and York, PA (1970).  Since then CROP Hunger Walks have raised millions of dollars to eradicate hunger and poverty.

There is still time to donate!  Checks may be made payable to CWS/CROP Hunger Walk and dropped off at the church.  Kindly note Glen Ridge Congregational Church in the memo line.
