What is CROP Hunger Walk?
CROP Hunger Walk is an annual event which combines fun and fundraising to raise money for hungry people throughout the world.
Beth El participates in CROP Walks for both Durham and Chapel Hill.

Team Name: Beth El Durham

Beth El’s Durham Team has made the CROP Walk Honor Roll several years! What will we do this year?
When I saw that Beth El’s Durham team raised over $3,000 for CROP Walk and was on the honor roll for tzedakah in 2013, I was very proud. I was invited to represent you at an awards banquet in January to hear about how your efforts made a huge difference.
I hope that our honor roll status is something we can maintain. Whether you walked last year or not, I hope you consider walking or supporting us. Ask Sandy Kronick and Eric Cohen who brought their children Ella and Nathan to their first CROP Walk for an unbiased view on the joys and challenges of walking as a family. Thank you to those who helped us to make a difference in the lives of the hungry! Jasmina says of CROP Walk, “It’s fun and I get snacks and to be with a friend and it feels good to help people who need food.”
