East End CROP Walk to End Hunger

The annual East End CROP Walk to Fight Hunger will be held
in Sag Harbor on Sunday, Oct. 20. Registration begins at Old Whalers' Church,
44 Union Street, at 12:15 p.m. The three-mile walk around the village begins at
1 p.m. After the walk, all participants are invited to share in a light meal
served at the church. Walkers can get more information, as well as sponsor
sheets, by calling the Rev. Mark Phillips at 631-725-0894. Volunteers are also
needed to help with registration, serve the meal and staff the water station
along the Walk route. CROP Hunger Walks are sponsored nationwide by Church
World Service. The local walk is an interfaith effort among East End churches
to relieve hunger around the world and around the corner. Funds raised by CROP
Walks are shared with food banks & community gardens across the U.S. Local
organizers have the option of returning up to 25 percent of what their Walk
raises to hunger-relief programs in their own area.
