30 Hour Famine - HinsdaleApril 24th, 2009BE SEEN. BE HEARD. BE HUNGRY. The students of HAA are hosting a 30-hr. famine to raise money to combat world hunger.
Chris was lucky. He got to eat breakfast this morning. A brown and white mushy breakfast will be the only meal he'll eat today. And in Zambia, where almost half the population--more than 5 million people--is hungry, Chris is blessed to have that mush.
But some kids won't get anything to eat--all day. And you won't see them on the TV or hear their stories on the radio. In fact, before this day is over, 29,000 chilcren under age 5 will die because of hunger, disease and poverty. 15,000 of them will die from hunger alone. Today...tomorrow...and the next day...That's one every six seconds.
But here's the good news. Students at Hinsdale Adventist Academy are choosing to make a difference. They are getting ready to take part in World Vision's 30 hour famine. They're going to raise money by not eating for 30 hours so that kids like Chris can eat every day.
And we want you to help! All high school students are invited to join us on April 24th and 25th at Hinsdale Adventist Academy, where we will come together to fast; perform community outreach; and participate in fun activities to help raise money for kids just like Chris.
