CROP is a mission of the Church World Service.
The Church World Service is working with partners
in the U.S. and around the world to build interfaith and intercultural coalitions
to eradicate hunger and poverty and promote peace and justice.
Together, we’re
supporting sustainable grassroots development, disaster relief, and refugee assistance.
The Erie Community is proud to be involved in this critical mission that benefits both global and local charities. Sponsor a walker or walk yourself!

The complete walk is 6.2 miles
out and back along Presque Isle State Park. A shorter 1 mile walk is
available which goes to the Stull Center and returns on the Bay side.
The Erie walk is the largest Crop Walk in Pennsylvania! Of the money raised,
25% will be given to the local food pantries to help the hungry here in Erie.
