Starting at 6:00 AM on April 11, 2008 I will not eat for 30 hours. The hunger I may experience over that time will be small compared to many in the world who go without food every day. I will be participating in World Vision's 30 Hour Famine - an event designed to raise awareness and funds to help feed and care for hungry children around the world. You can help by sponsoring me.
Just $1 can help feed and care for one child for one day. $30 can help feed and care for one child for one month.
Because of awareness and fund raising efforts like the 30 Hour Famine, the number of kids who die each day due to hunger, disease, and proverty has dropped from 40,00 to 29,000 since 1992.
