A Red Wagon, Life Lessons and the CROP Hunger Walk

The first year Garth went on the CROP Hunger Walk, his mother pulled him in his red wagon. After all, he was only three years old. The next year, he walked some and rode in his wagon part of the way. If asked, he would tell you that he was walking so people wouldn't be hungry. When he was five, Garth and his mother wrote to family members and special friends, asking them to pledge for their walk. Garth signed the letter too. Now at ten, Garth knows more about hunger in the world, and he is concerned about children around the world who go to bed hungry. He never fails to pray for hungry people in his bedtime prayers. Garth is determined to walk the whole way this year, and he hopes that "by the time I a parent, there won't have to be Hunger Walks."
