No one in this world should be hungry. That's why the 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.

The 2026 CROP Hunger Walk will be virtual (no in-person scheduled event).

Please join us in the fight against hunger. The steps we take and funds we raise will make a difference in the lives of others.

This year’s walk will take place virtually on October 4, 2026.

Please join us as we "walk" to stamp out hunger in our community! 75% of the funds raised goes to Church World Service and 25% of the funds raised will be split between Feeding America (sponsored by Silver Creek Church) and the NMU Food Pantry.

The Marquette County Crop Hunger Walk is an effort to increase awareness of hunger and related issues and raise funds to address them. They seek to feed people - around the corner and around the world.

Check out the website: www.crophungerwalk.org/marquettemi for more information and to donate.
