Kent CROP Hunger Walk

Save the Date for the CROP Hunger Walk

Please sign up to walk or make a donation to our Kent United Methodist team for our 34th annual Church World Service (CWS) Kent CROP Hunger Walk. No one in this world should be hungry. That's why the Kent CROP Hunger Walk is more than just a gathering of people in a place. We're part of a movement, taking steps and raising funds together to provide meals for those in our own community who need them - and supporting programs that create greater food security in communities all around the world.

Walk information:

Date: Sunday, October 4th

Times: Check-in at 12:00-1:00 pm at Van Doren's Landing Park Shelter South

Walk start time: 1 p.m.; hot dogs and chips served at the shelter at 2 p.m.
Walk and cleanup end by 3 p.m.

Location: Van Doren's Landing Park, 22230 Russell Rd, Kent, WA 98032

Walk path: The path is fully paved, and you can walk around the entire park, but there is also a shorter paved path for those who need it. ADA compatible.

Thank You for Supporting the 2025 CROP Hunger Walk

The Outreach: Beyond our Walks Committee would like to thank everyone who walked or donated to this year’s Kent CROP Hunger Walk. The walk was very successful this year. Our KUMC team raised $3,430. Nine teams registered, 39 people walked, and the total to date is $24,470, but money is still arriving. This money will go a long way to fight hunger and poverty around the world. 25% of this money stays right here in Kent to support local programs.
