Apr. 30th, 2015 10:40 amFolks, in a fit of... whimsy? nostalgia? inspiration? I signed up for the
Albany Area CROP Walk to fight hunger. I did several CROP walks and bike-a-thons as a teenager, back when they were 10 mile walks and 50 mile bikes! This is a token 3 mile walk (with a 1 mile option, but I plan to do the 3 miles). Sadly, after signing up I discovered that folks at my church are loyal to their friends who have been doing this for years, so I have NO sponsors, and really no other local contacts to draw on since church is my workplace too.
Will any of you help me make walking worthwhile? You can click the link above to donate on my behalf. If I can raise $100 I'll donate that much myself, and enjoy seeing new sites and meeting new people on the walk; if not I'll withdraw, rather than claim a t-shirt for just my own donation, which seems pointless.
Direct CROP donations go to Church World Service. If you prefer not to donate through them, there is a box on the donation form to enter another agency name. The list of other agencies is here.
Donations to HI (Heifer International) would make me especially happy.
