This weekend, the 17th til the 19th of August, the World Vision 40 Hour Famine is on.
I started mine a bit early (busy weekend), and finished today, and if I can go forty hours without food, I'm sure ANYBODY can!!
This year the funds raised are destined for Laos, a country next to Vietnam where:
Over half the population live below the poverty line.
1/3 of the population live on less than $2 a day.
50% of the population do not have access to clean water.
40% of children under five are malnourished.
You can make a difference though, so if you're doing the famine, well done and good luck! If not, sponsor a friend who is; every dollar counts.
