Dr. Sondra King, professor in the school of family, consumer and nutrition sciences, to whom the walk is traditionally dedicated, traveled around the world to help with childhood hunger issues. Since her untimely death, the North DeKalb County CROP Hunger Walk has been dedicated in her memory.

Congratulations Michael and Nora Duffy, Ellen Anderson and Henry Leonard! Also walking were David Anderson, Eva Leonard, and Marilyn Sjoholm. Also raising funds was Bob Brown. Click on the St. Paul's Episcopal Church CROP Walk Team link to view and contribute on-line. On-line donations can be made until March 31, 2011!
CROP Walk: Considering the weak economy, the 2010 CROP Walk was a great success! Our St. Paul's team raised $1140, a wee bit short of our 2009 total of $1230, but it is excellent! The Sondra King Memorial CROP Hunger Walk of North DeKalb County raised $28, 697 this year. The goal was $30,000; probably it will be reached as contributions continue to come in. Thanks to all who made this achievement possible: Walkers, funds raisers, and contributors! --Henry Leonard

CROP Hunger Walks help children and families worldwide - and right here in the U.S. - to have food for today, while building for a better tomorrow. Each year some two million CROP Walkers, volunteers, and sponsors put their hearts and soles in motion, raising over $16 million per year to help end hunger and poverty around the world - and in their own communities. And you are part of it! For more information on the worldwide crop walk fundraisers, go to http://www.churchworldservice.org.
