Valor - 30 Hour Famine



Hey guys it's VALOR,

I’m doing a fundraiser called “30 hour famine”, where me and my youth group at church don't eat for 30 hours to see what people in Africa go through every day. We don’t actually start the famine yet, but the first part is fundraising to give the money to feed kids in Africa. The famine starts April 24th at 12:00 pm and ends April 25th at 6:00pm. Please also be praying for me during this time. $30 will feed a child for a month. . It doesn't matter if you donate a $1 or $50. I would appreciate it. Donations are Tax Deductible! My goal is to raise $480 which will feed 2 kids for 8 months. So if you can please, donate =)!! If you have any question please contact me about this, by putting a comment on here with your email and I will email you back.

Here's more information about World Vision and the 30 Hour Famine program:
World Vision is a Christian humanitarian organization dedicated to working with children, families and communities worldwide to reach their full potential by tackling the causes of poverty and injustice.

Motivated by our faith in Jesus Christ, World Vision serves alongside the poor and oppressed as a demonstration of God's unconditional love for all people.
World Vision serves all people, regardless of religion, race, ethnicity, or gender.
World Vision's 30 Hour Famine is an international youth movement to fight hunger. Students typically fast for 30 hours to spread awareness and raise funds to help provide food and care for children worldwide, including here in the US. Every $30 raised helps provide food and care for a child for a month (worldwide average).

For Fiscal year 2007, World Vision's overhead rate was 14%, meaning that 86% of total revenue went directly to our efforts in the field. For more information about World Vision's financials and stewardship, visit World Vision's web site at http://www.worldvision.org/.
