Please Support the CROP WALK on Nov. 15th

The 2026 SPF CROP Hunger Walk has been rescheduled to November 15th at the Scotch Plains/ Fanwood High School Track at 1 pm, due to constant rain on Oct. 11th.  Our purpose is to reduce hunger, globally and locally. Every donation made helps people, including our own neighbors, who are struggling with food insecurity. IHM's Food Bank will receive $500 to $1,000 based upon the participation of people who walk and/ or donate this year.

You can donate and/ or register to be a walker at crophungerwalk.org/scotchplainsnj. On the page that appears, you can choose to register as an individual walker, join or start a team, or to Donate. You can also write a check payable to "Church World Service" and write "CROP WALK IHM" in the memo line. 

Last year the SPF CROP Walk raised just under $12,000; let's help surpass it this year! Thank you for your support of CROP Walks. 

Join the IHM Youth Ministry for a fun and meaningful night of service! We’ll be packing care packages for our college students—filled with snacks, encouraging notes, and other items.

This project helps remind our college students that their parish family is thinking of them, praying for them, and cheering them on as they grow in faith and independence.

Pizza will be served!

When: Sunday, November 15 from 6:00-8:00 PM

Where: IHM Nazareth Center

Who: All 9th grade through 12th grade teens are welcome!
