Updated personnel list
In the late 1960, CWS began to organize ''CROP Hunger Walks'', in which individuals agreed to walk to raise funds for hunger relief. Unlike similar walks organized by other groups, 25% of funds raised were earmarked for distribution to local hunger-fighting organizations. Also, donors have the option to designate the remaining funds to other organizations besides CWS, such as Lutheran World Relirf, American Jewish World Service, WorldVision, and International Orthodox Christian Charities. Many Orthodox parishes participate in CROP Walks nationally. In particular, the Lancaster, Pennsylvania CROP Walk was organized in the 1970s by the [[proistamenos]] of Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church, Fr. [[Alexander Veronis]], who continued to chair the walk as of 2007.
