I'm participating in the 40 Hour Famine which is a community awareness and youth fundraising event. It aims to tackle the Global Food Crisis in countries where
kids struggle to get food every single day. My goal is to raise $200 (It makes me wonder how the heck my friend got $800+ already) and i'm requesting that you guys help me
make a difference by donating to my online page. Every donation counts, and all are greatly appreciated! :D
My page (This is where details of my famine and how much i've raised, how to donate, etc. is):
40 Hour Famine - Profile Page
To everyone who doesn't know what it's about and what it's for, here's the About page of the 40 Hour Famine:
About the 40 Hour Famine
I've already done my famine (i went without food for 40 hours) and i will be doing it again during the official dates (20th of August to 22nd of August) and during those dates i will be giving up speech, food, and furniture. Wish me luck!

@Emo, That's wonderful.
Get off my thread, now. D<
@TheCat, It's not too bad when you know what you're doing it for ;)

Wish you well. I don't really do this, but tend to work in a more localized settings.
Drink plenty of water. Else, you might pass out or worse.

My school had 30 hour famine a while ago...
But they cut out the sleep-at-school part so it kind of lost its purpose.

I wish I could have went to my 30 Hour Famine, I got sick at the day right before it and had to skip it. >:L I can't really donate since I dun has credit/debit cards and such, but good luck! Drink lots of fluids and juices, those natural sugars will keep you up and running!

I made toffee so i should be good. However, my first go was like...FOOD. WARM, SAVOURY FOOD. WANT. ARGH. Also, i didn't drink much water at all...I never really drink anything other than milk (which i can't do in the famine). =w=
This is 40 hours, though. I'm assuming it's different over there, with 30 hours...?
My friends gave up furniture and speech at school so it was pretty hilarious having them sit/lie on the ground to do their work and have them use crazy sign language to send a message across.
Also,thanks in advance for any donations :)

Starving yourself of nutrition and health?
These idiots really know the best way to raise money.
As much as I enjoy helping out others in need, this is obviously not the way to go.
