Mission Highlight

Knox Team Captains are very happy to let you know that last month 19 Knox walkers raised $3806 by participating in the 40th Naperville Area CROP Hunger Walk. Many thanks to all the walkers and their sponsors for raising these funds to support Around the Block and Around the World programs. Moreover, participants in the local CROP Hunger Walk had the opportunity to pack Easy Meals for the clients of Loaves and Fishes. The goal of packing 600 Easy Meals was accomplished!!
