News Brief: Hunger walk Sunday

Posted on April 10, 2008 by Staff

The Inter-Faith Council for Social Service, in conjunction with Church World Service, will hold the CROP Hunger Walk on Sunday.

Seventy-five percent of money raised during the walk benefits Church World Service, a nonprofit that funds global hunger education, refugees, disaster relief and self-help projects in more than 80 countries. The remaining 25 percent supports the IFC’s hunger-relief programs, including the Community Kitchen and Food Pantry.

Walkers are sponsored by friends, businesses, organizations and employers. IFC clients and residents walk with a group called the IFC Striders.

Registration for walkers begins at 1:30 p.m., and the walk will follow at 2:30 p.m. The walk will start from the Town Commons and continue for four miles through the streets of Carrboro, Chapel Hill and the UNC campus. After the walk, participants are invited to return to the Town Commons for music and refreshments.

For more information on participating or sponsoring the IFC Striders, please contact Charles Williams at 919-929-6380, ext. 15 or assistant@ifcmailbox.org.
