Chris Tiu for World Vision Philippines' 12-Hour Famine



From myworldvisionph

In the next seven seconds another hungry child will die. Hunger is one of the leading child killers in our world.

In response to this dire hunger problem, World Vision Philippines is doing the "12-hour Famine" campaign, a global youth movement against hunger and poverty.

Pinoy youth from across thr country are invited to come together in one event and experience a 12-hour famine—that is to go on voluntary fasting from food for 12-hours. Together they will unite as one lending their voices to this global fight against hunger and poverty.

The 12-hour hunger period will be devoted to various activities other than eating. There will be educational sessions and talks on related issues, video presentations, prayer time, interactive activities, and a big, festive concert with the country's top bands and other celebrity supporters.

The "12-hour Famine" will happen on November 6, from 9am to 9pm at the Flying V Arena in San Juan. To register dial 8-FAMINE or log on to www.worldvision.org.ph/famine.

This is your chance to do something relevant for the country and the world. All it takes is a little sacrifice.

Eat nothing. Do something. Join the 12-hour Famine!
