  Walkers cover a designated route beginning and ending at the Christian Theological Seminary on 42nd Street near Michigan Rd. (near Butler University).  Indianapolis area congregations of all faiths, civic groups and other organizations, as well as individual walkers are invited to participate. Sign-up envelopes for gathering pledges will be available closer to the walk time within participating groups.

  Recruiters for each group will be picking up solicitation and promotional materials prior to the walk on our  Materials Pick-Up Days.

  The funds collected by the walkers from their sponsors are channeled through Church World Service to fight hunger around the world. CWS provides grants equivalent to 25 percent of the total collected in our CROP Walk to local organizations involved in the fight against hunger. Sponsors of walkers may designate to an overseas organization other than Church World Service.

  On our 2012 walk, more than 500 walkers and volunteers representing 60 congregations or groups in the greater Indianapolis area raised $93,500 for Church World Service. Over 17% of our funds were raised online. We are the 6th largest CROP Hunger Walk in the U.S.!

  Water stops are located along the 3.2 mile route. Portable toilets are available along the route and at the start/finish. Participants are entertained at the start/finish with music, and are greeted by our cheerleaders upon completing the walk.   Walkers raising $250 or more receive a special thank you gift.

  Walkers register from 1:45 to 2:15 p.m. and they start walking immediately, setting their own pace. Baby strollers/prams, wagons with children, and wheelchairs are welcome at the CROP Walk, but, for safety reasons, skateboards, scooters, roller and in-line skates, tricycles, and bicycles are not allowed.  Dogs and other pets are welcomed but must be on leash or otherwise controlled.  Children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult.

• The CROP Walk is a Family Affair. Feel free to bring wagons or stollers so the little ones can participate. Photo Courtesy Kathy Hansen
