30-Hour Famine - Hunger Must Go
Have you try spend 30 hours didn't eat and feel the hunger before? I have. I'm very proud I have this experience. I have participated the programme 30-Hour Famine twice in 2015 and 2016.
As a 30-Hour Famine participant, we will learn about global issue affecting the poor, play interactive and educational games and find out how they are making an impact.
What is 30-Hour Famine?
First initiated by World
Vision Canada in 1971, 30-Hour Famine is now being organised in one form or
another by World Vision offices in more than 15 countries as a global movement
against hunger and poverty.
Every year since 1997, thousands of young Malaysians come together
to take a stand against hunger and poverty by raising funds for projects
combating hunger and poverty through different formats of the 30-Hour Famine like 30-Hour Famine, 26+4 Famine, 8-Hour Kidz Famine and 12-Hour Famine.
A mission we have done before we joined that is we need to
find fundraising.
The minimum fundraising amount to join the Famine movement
is as below:
Children below 12 years old: RM60
Students and senior citizens: RM100
Working adults: RM150
All funds raised will support programmes by World Vision and
local partners in Malaysia, Mongolia, Vietnam, Indonesia, the Philippines and
Democratic Republic of the Congo. These programmes help children and families
overcome poverty by improving access to healthcare, nutritious food, clean
water, food security and economic opportunity.
Gary Chaw was appointed the 30-Hour Famine Ambassador in 2016.
