LOVE HUNGRY_30 Hour Famine 2012



Worldwide, 925 million people are hungry. 
Every day, as many as 11,000 children under age 5 die due to hunger-related causes. 
That’s one kid every 8 seconds.

On April 27th, I will begin a 30 hour fast along with thousands of people across the United States in an effort to raise awareness about world hunger and to join in the fight to end it. The 30 hours allow us, who live comfortable and privileged lives, to simulate what true hunger feels like, and experience just a portion of what millions of people around the world feel every single day. Our 30 hours will make hunger a part of our history, and not our present?our chance to actually do something about hunger.

The annual "30 Hour Famine" is run by World Vision, a trusted humanitarian organization that was established in 1950. World Vision's goal is simply to aid the people of third world countries that have been ravaged by wars, political strife, natural disasters, hunger;overall poverty. 

My hope is for you to help World Vision's mission to end world hunger. It is possible (!), and with the help of your funds and donations, we can all fight hunger! Every $30 I raise will help feed and care for a child for a whole MONTH! Will you please contribute for me to go without so that others can eat?
I am currently accepting donations on my online profile, HERE
