40 Hour Famine

I am giving up talking, Facebook, maybe Twitter, and my cellphone to help save the starving children in East Timor for 40 Hour Famine!

40 Hour Famine is basically people who are giving up certain stuffs that are important in their lives while raising life-changing funds for children overseas. A lot of people has done this by going 40 hours straight without food!

I wanted to do that at first but I honestly think I will die without food, so I chose not to speak for 40 hours straight.

The reason I am doing this is very simple.

I was simply inspired by this quote: "You only have to starve 40 hours in your life time, but the kids in East Timor starves every single day in their lives."

What do I have to lose for 40 hours? If I could actually gain more for the kids that are suffering now?

You could show support to me too, by simply donating money to me.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Money that are donated to me won't be mine! I am not keeping even one cent of the money I have raised. All donations goes to East Timor for the starving kids.

Another important note: I am in no position FORCING you to donate money. The choice is yours. And if it troubles you then it's ok. Again, I am not forcing people into this. You could do this simply because you wanted to help or support. So don't take this the wrong way.

And if you are donating *thank you in advance, please just leave my reference number so that World Vision will know which account it's going into. My reference number is : 11155858

I pray for the hunger,
