Homework Challenge

This weekend I have been taking part in the 40hour famine to raise money for hungry children in other countries. The 40 hour famine is pretty much where you do something like going with out food, with technology or even taking a vow of silence, but you have to do this for 40 hours, in my case only 24 hours because of how old I am, and get people to sponsor you in doing this. I chose to go without food for 24 hours, I thought this would be easy cause mum sometimes has to remind me to eat.

This was no easy challenge though because around 5 hours after I had started, at 12:00am on Saturday, I started to crave waffels cause of my dad saying "Oh think I might have some waffles for dinner", this really started make things hard after he did this for about the 10th time.

The only things that I was allowed to have were 1 juice box of Just Juice and 1 barley sugar every hour. From doing this challenge I have learnt how hard and sad it is for all the children who don't have enough food or water and how it means they don't have a lot of energy to do things. I will finnish doing this at 12:00 am today and realize how lucky I am.

Here is a photo of my profile on the 40hour famine website.

 You can see I have raised 20 dollars so far towards my 40 dollar goal, with more to come in the next few days.
