Want to help make a REAL difference for children in third world countries while having a great time with your mates?

World Vision’s 40 Hour Famine is a chance to do just that! The 40 hour famine is one of Australia’s biggest fundraising events, giving you the chance to experience what going without something that you rely on – for 40 hours – is like for children in third world countries, who go without the same things everyday of their lives.

The 40 Hour Famine started in 1975 to raise money to help children, families and communities in desperate need. Today it continues to provide both short-term and long-term support as they tackle the causes of poverty in their community. This is your chance to take a step out of our first world luxury and do something worthwhile for people who truly need help. The 40 Hour Famine exists to educate young people on global poverty and motivate them to action through fundraising for World Vision projects. So what are you waiting for?
