Be Hungry for a Better World @ 30 HOUR FAMINE

The 30 HOUR FAMINE is World Vision’s annual flagship youth-centric event, to raise awareness of global issues such as poverty and the well-being of children.

The 30 HOUR FAMINE is held in many countries including USA, Canada, Australia, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Korea, Malaysia, and Singapore, and involves more than 1.5 million youth around the world, fasting from solid food for 30 hours to show their solidarity towards people trapped in poverty.

The 30 HOUR FAMINE Camp in Singapore aims to transform the mindset of youths in Singapore towards issues of poverty, and to motivate campers to take action steps towards achieving change.

This year, the 30 HOUR FAMINE Camp will take place on June 17 & 18 at Ngee Ann Polytechnic, with the support of over 1500 youths and volunteers.

  • Famine 30 Hour 飢餓三十
    The 30-Hour Famine is a global movement against hunger and poverty. Participants are going to get a crash course in global hunger and come face to face with the realities of poverty and injustice. We believe this will make a global impact by learning about world hunger and raising money for hungry children around the world through World Vision. Through service projects and raising awareness during our 30 hours, we will all get a small taste of what it is like for starving kids around the world. The Famine is our chance to make a difference, our chance to make hunger part of our history not our present, and our chance actually do something about hunger. 何谓世界宣明会?世界宣明会是一个专注于人道救暖,扶贫发展和推动醒觉教育的国际性基督组织。在不分宗教信仰,种族,文化背景或性别的情况下,致力为孩童及其家庭和社区服务,对抗贫穷极不公平。 那何谓饥饿三十? 饥饿30是 一项对抗饥饿和贫穷的全球性活动。参与者将会在三十小时里仅以清水裹腹,借此募捐凑款, 帮助生活在极端贫穷的儿童及其社群改善生活条件,迈向自力更生之路。 在饑餓三十活動中,我們將會一起禁食30個小時來體驗饑荒所帶來的影響。 這30個小時裏,每位參加者將通過一系列有趣又刺激的遊戲和活動來了解落後地區的生活狀況以及他們所面對的問題。 當中,我們同時會有社區勞動服務,幫助綠化和改善整個社區的環境。 讓我們以實際行動來幫助那些正在被饑荒所影響的孩童們。 相信借著這個活動,我們會改變我們人生的價值觀,了解生命的重量,並且活得更有意義! 讓我們一起體驗饑餓,打擊饑荒
