This year marks the 10th Famine in Malaysia, coinciding with World Vision Malaysia’s 10th anniversary. To commemorate this milestone, the Famine will be bilingual (English and Mandarin) for the first time ever, and the theme for the year is “Hungry for Hope”.

The 30-hour Famine is a global movement against hunger and poverty. It is a life-changing camp aimed at spreading awareness about global poverty and raising funds to improve the lives of needy children and communities.

At the 30-Hour Famine, campers fast for 30 hours in solidarity with millions who go hungry because of war, disasters and poverty. During the camp, they gain insight to pressing global issues via talks, simulation games, and group activities. Best of all, they know their hunger is bringing hope to children and communities because they raise/contribute funds for them prior to the camp.

I will be participating for the first time, will you?
