Online Fundraising 2019

Online fundraising is just one way you can participate in our fundraising efforts to help end hunger. Our online teams grow each year and raised just over $30,000 last year. They're already near $25,000. Online teams will help us to reach our GOAL of raising $109,000. You can register online, donate to the walk, to an individual walker or to an online team at www.crophungerwalk.org/redbanknj/
Donations of any amount count! If you ate today why not donate $8.00 or $39.00 for our 39th walk or $50 for the 50th anniversary of CROP Hunger Walks. Donating on the day of our walk, Sunday Oct. 20th is done using sponsor envelopes.

Our CROP Walk Circle of Caring Steps up to the Start Line in 5 Days

Every donation no matter how small adds up to the total funds raised for our 39th Red Bank CROP Hunger Walk. 25% of all donations stay right here in Monmouth County to help sustain our 15 local partner programs. 75% of funds raised support programs of Church World Service Global which has been working to end hunger for 73 years. CROP Hunger Walks have been part of this effort for 50 years. Donations can easily be made online at www.crophungerwalk.org/redbanknj/

Teen Leaders promote CROP Walk at their Temple

Teen leaders Jared Battaglia and Ryan Ferrigno from Temple Shalom in Aberdeen set up a display in the lobby to encourage people to donate food to the CROP Walk food collection. Our goal this year is 16,000 lbs. If everyone chips in a little we'll make that goal and all food will be distributed to two dozen pantries right here in Monmouth County.

 

 Thank you Ryan and Jared for recognizing the needs of those facing food insecurity in our local communities.  Love the poster! Have you set up a food collection at your church or school? Send us some photos and let us know how you do. All food should be brought to Red Bank Regional High School at 1:00 on Sunday Oct. 20th.
