Getting Ready for the 2020 Virtual CROP Hunger Walk

"They are to do good, to be rich in good works,

to be generous and ready to share.”

1 Timothy 6:18

 

The Greater Lexington Community is Walking Virtually throughout September's Hunger Action Month!
 
Many of us will Walk with our immediate family in a nearby park, around our neighborhood, backyard or in our homes. Perhaps we will Walk with a few friends (adhering to ALL COVID restrictions). Unable to Walk in solidarity (even if apart) Sunday Sept. 27? Choose any day/time during Sept./early Oct. to Walk. Spirit Walk online any time @crophungerwalk.org/lexingtonky. Checks payable to CWS/CROP can be mailed to our Walk's Treasurer Nathan Lee, 401 Clinton Rd, Lex., KY 40502.

 
This ongoing pandemic has created staggering hunger plights not only for our KY kids!  Alas, "Kentucky is currently ranked highest in the nation for food insecurity among older adults ages 50-59!" (godspantry.org)  While enduring drastic climate extremes, our Dominican Republic neighbors are struggling with worsening poverty and hunger! (cwsglobal.org) The funds we raise will assist global families learning how to develop gardens and fish farms and our local food bank to meet the overwhelming food needs of our most vulnerable KY friends.
 
We are going Big and Bountiful this COVID year!  With generous gifts from each one of us blessed with food, clean water, a safe home, we intend to meet our $30,000 goal!  The Challenge: Donate at least $20 OR 20% more than last year!  Register to WALK with a Team already online OR create your own!  Discover ideas @ resources.crophungerwalk.org or resources.crophungerwalk.org/Virtual-Walks. Experience joy building a world where there is enough for all!
 
Walking Together (even if apart) with Joy, Peace and Love,
Judy Maxson, Walk organizer

"Jack and I did our CROP Walk in our neighborhood

on this beautiful Labor Day morning. Of course, the African women with head loads on my old CROP Walk t-shirt are working harder than I was. But I know from living in three West African countries that their talent and posture and grace should be admired!"
