CROP WALK 2010
The Central Brevard Sharing Center is proud to be hosting the
2010 Crop Walk to Stop Hunger. For more than 39 years Church World Services
has helped over 3,200 local food pantries, food banks, and meal sites
throughout the United States. Our mission like theirs is a simple one,
stop hunger in the world by starting here in our own backyard.
Here at the Central Brevard Sharing Center, we serve over 49,000 meals
per year and provide 10 tons of food per month through our food pantry.
These needs have continued to increase dramatically in our basic programs.
Last year alone we helped over 3,000 first time clients. The Crop Walk
is an opportunity to take direct action to stop hunger in our community.
This years Crop Walk will be held on Sunday March 7th, 2010 at 2:00
PM. It will start at the Lori Wilson Park in Cocoa Beach. This year
we are walking on the beach and along highway A1A.
This year more than ever we need your help. Currently the Sharing Center
is seeing a huge increase in requested service. The Crop Walk is a great
opportunity for your congregation, especially the youth to step up to
the plate and help individuals and families in need in our community.
Twenty five percent of all donations collected go directly to The Central
Brevard Sharing Center. We are hoping that with your participation,
this event will be fun and rewarding for all.
