You don’t eat…
February 22, 2010…so someone else can.
Each day, over 25,000 children under the age of 5 die from preventable diseases such as malnutrition, malaria, diarrhea, and acute respiratory infections. Malnutrition is associated with over half of those deaths.
Each year, we at {2:42} are a part of the 30 Hour Famine, organized by World Vision, in order to help combat the destructive impact of hunger and poverty world wide.
This year we will be doing the Famine on April 23-24. Students pledge to not eat for 30 Hours and seek to raise sponsors for the event. We’ll spend the night at the church and also have a pancake breakfast for the community to help raise extra support.
Sign Up in the lobby at church if you want to be a part of this year’s Famine. You can also find the permission slips for the event on our forms page as well.
