Looking for a great way to help end world hunger? Each year, World Vision heads up an event (Which I participated in about a week and a half ago) called the 30 Hour Famine which is definitely a step towards ending starvation. Church youth groups everywhere get together and fast for - you guessed it - 30 hours. Participants ask family and friends to sponsor them and the money earned goes to World Vision. The fast starts at 12pm on Friday after participants eat lunch and the fast is broken at 6pm on the next day. It’s really cool and I encourage you to try it out next year. The country that was the center of attention for this year was Uganda, but all of Word Vision’s countries are supported by the fast.
Sup With Uganda?- An error has occurred; the feed is probably down. Try again later.
