Celebrating 32 Years in 2024

And you can be part of it! This is an exciting year for our community CROP Hunger Walk! Next November 3, we will celebrate 32 YEARS of fighting hunger! This is a remarkable milestone for our Community Walk, as well as the 7,500 people who have demonstrated through walking our Walk a shared belief that hunger is not inevitable. There is enough for all. Together, our CROP Walkers are changing lives.

And GREAT NEWS!! On November 3, hundreds of people in our community will again be walking together as one voice raising awareness for the millions of impoverished people who cry out but are not heard. These walkers are just like you, people who care enough to help the many impoverished families around the world and in our own neighborhood to experience a better tomorrow.

CROP Walkers walk so that others can live. CROP Walkers throughout the U.S. have been doing this for over 50 years. Now we are being called, more than ever, to step up and help vulnerable neighbors wherever they may be!!

Join us!! Register now online or make a donation to the Walk, and help to build a world where there is enough food and water for all.

Together, we continue to make a difference!

The Burke/Fairfax Walk is one of 550 CROP Hunger Walks held in the past year as part of a nationwide effort to raise money and awareness for hunger relief. 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.

In the past 30 years, more than 7,500 Burke CROP Walkers raised over $634,000 to relieve hunger globally through Church World Service, and over $150,000 to help hungry people in our own community.
