Opportunity for Mission: The CROP Walk!

Hey there, Austin Agapeites! We have a great opportunity to participate in a fantastic event this weekend: The 31st Annual CROP Walk!

The CROP Walk is a fundraiser which helps organizations who are fighting hunger. 25%of the money goes to support local Austin organizations, and 75% supports the Church World Service, which sponsors the event. The organization builds interfaith and intercultural coalitions in 80 countries to help with hunger and poverty. You can look at their website at www.churchworldservice.org.

A group from UPC is going to walk at this event on Sunday! It is going to be held at Roy Guerrero Colorado River Park , and we’ll meet there at 2:00. The walk will be finished at 3:30. All along the walk, there are booths to educate us about hunger and poverty locally in Austin and around the world. It’s not too late to join the group!

Is anyone interested in walking? If so, you might want to make a donation. And even if you don’t walk, you can still donate!

Please e-mail Renee if you are interested: upccampus@upcaustin.org.
