Legacy
The greater Muskegon community has been hosting the Muskegon CROP Walk for Hunger event
for over 40 years! In that time, we have raised more than $1.2 million to support hunger fighting programs in Muskegon County and around the world.
Working with partner agencies around the world, CROP Walk for Hunger funds are used by Church World Service (CWS) to provide both immediate help during disasters, and long-term assistance in creating sustainable communities by providing small business loans and education, farming tools, and water well expertise to people throughout the world.
One quarter of the funds (25%) of the dollars raised in Muskegon County stay within the local community to support food pantries, community gardens and healthy eating/educational programs. Thousands of Muskegon residents have benefited from the Muskegon County CROP Walk for Hunger.
