The 40 Hour Famine
Thursday August 5, 2010
I'm doing the World Vision 40 Hour Famine again this year, from Friday night August 20 to Sunday afternoon the 22nd (yes, election weekend!), and I'm very grateful for those who have sponsored me. Even a few dollars will make a huge difference in a small, hungry child's life. This year, money raised will support projects aimed at tackling childhood malnutrition in Kenya; fighting child labour and trafficking in India; providing supplementary food support to families in Cambodia; addressing climate change and increasing agricultural production in Nepal; and assisting with food security in Laos.
This really does make a difference - I've met the child I sponsor in Peru, so I know how dramatically even the smallest amount of money can help people in developing countries. My profile page is here, if anyone wants to check it out :-)
