What is 30-Hour Famine?
The 30-Hour Famine is a global movement against hunger and poverty. Participants go without food for 30 hours and get a glimpse of the dire conditions that children and families in need endure everyday. They also raise funds, transforming their hunger into hope for children and families in need. The Famine aims to inspire and empower ordinary people to care for those in need, both locally and globally.
Who is World Vision?
World Vision is a Christian relief, development and advocacy organisation dedicated to working with children, families and communities to overcome poverty and injustice. World Vision serves all people regardless of religion, race, ethnicity or gender.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
30-Hour Famine = 26 Hours + 4 Hours
“Do It Yourself (DIY)” Famine Camps are held in schools, colleges, offices, and any other place where there are a group of people who want to make a unique stand against poverty.
• For 26 hours, they fast and learn about global poverty issues, guided by the Famine Kit and training provided to camp leaders.
• The last 4 hours are spent at a star-studded Famine Countdown event, where they break fast together with Famine Campers from across the country.
WHY THE CHANGE IN FORMAT?
• We seek to empower people in the fight against poverty.
• We want to give them the avenue to run the Famine in their own unique way.
• We want the Famine to reach every corner of the country.
We believe decentralisation is the way forward, as proven by our counterparts in countries such as the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, England, Taiwan and Korea.
