40 Hour Famine Mission






IT IS ON! This is my first 40 Hour Famine, but this is no ordinary 40 Hour Famine. This is a once in a life time opportunity. My target is $1000. It's a high target but it is possible.

The Plan
If 500 people give me $2 in the next 2 weeks, I just need to ask 35 people everyday for the next 2 weeks. (Do the maths; $70 a day for 14 days is $980). So by just contributing $2, you are supporting my cause in a significant way.

So far people have been encouraging but also skeptical to my goal of $1000. This skepticism could hold me back but I am using it as a tool to defy what others say. Since I will have to ask 500 people, I will ask for sponsors at:
  • School
  • Work
  • Church
  • St. John Ambulance Volunteering
  • Break class
If you want to contribute your 2 dollars I will gladly appreciate it. Like I say, 2$ can go very far from 500 people. Also please tell your friends about my cause and spread the word. I will go door knocking too.

Also you can sponsor me online simply by visiting the World Vision 40 Hour Famine website (http://www.40hourfamine.com.au) and click on Donate Now.

When the donation form asks you for the Famine Number, please enter 281333484. This makes sure that the donation is recorded against my name and that I'm sent a record of your donation.

You can also go directly to the donate screen by clicking here https://famine.worldvision.com.au/famine.cgi?a=SPONSOR_&pn=281333484

Wish me luck.
