South DuPage CROP Hunger Walk
Sponsorship Program
Businesses, churches and other civic organizations are invited to become sponsors of the 23nd annual South DuPage CROP Hunger Walk by contributing $100 or more to the Friends of the South DuPage CROP Hunger Walk. Last year, 8 local sponsors contributed $3,055. These contributions in combination with funds raised by nearly 200 CROP walkers from local schools, civic organizations and churches totaled more than $26,400 for hunger programs in 2008.
Sponsorship is important since these funds pay for the prizes and incentives given to the walkers who raise money. By becoming a sponsor of the South DuPage CROP Hunger Walk, your organization will benefit from:
- The publicity of being associated with our local hunger fighting group.
- Having contributed directly to hunger programs within our community and around the world.
- Leveraging your contribution by encouraging others to contribute to these same important hunger programs through the incentives that are given away.
In DuPage County over 40,000 persons suffer periodically from hunger each year. In the five towns of Downers Grove, Westmont, Darien, Woodridge and Lisle which comprise the South DuPage CROP Hunger Walk, more than 3,300 families are regularly in need of food assistance. You can help our campaign and your organization by becoming a sponsor of the South DuPage CROP Hunger Walk. Over the 21 years of our existence, the South DuPage CROP Hunger Walk has raised over $494,000 with $123,000 going to local hunger relief agencies.
