2025 CROP Hunger Walk

Please join us for the 45th Annual Red Bank CROP Hunger Walk on Sunday, October 19, 2025 at Red Bank Regional Highschool.
Red Bank CROP Hunger Walk is organized by a group of local volunteers from various schools, churches and businesses working together to raise funds and collect food for our neighbors in the greater Red Bank area and around the globe. 100% of the donated food and 25% of the funds raised support 14 local food pantries right here in Monmouth County. The remaining 75% of funds raised support the work of Church World Service around the globe.

In 2024, we raised $120,000 and collected roughly 10,000 lbs. of food supported by a total of about 300 walkers. In recognition of our 45th year and the expanded needs in our community, our goal for 2025 is to raise $145,000 and collect 14,500 lbs of food.

There will be music, games, an art contest, a food drive and refreshments as part of this family friendly event. Invite your friends, family, neighbors and co-workers to join you in walking, giving and changing the world!
