Impact is Getting Hungry Again!
 
What is the 30 Hour Famine?
Students around the world loving God and fighting hunger. Our students will grow closer to Christ and each other as they fast together for 30 hours and raise funds to fight hunger. When we do the Famine we’re challenging our students to be part of something bigger than themselves. To take action for God’s kingdom. To help save the lives of hungry kids. To permanently change the way we see the world.
How the Famine works:
This year’s Famine will be held Friday, September 27 and Saturday, September 28. Then on Famine weekend, students get up close and personal with hunger by  going 30 hours without food. Our Impact and Injoy Youth Groups will be fundraising for the event throughout September and are accepting monetary donations. Please be sure to attend the 10:15 Youth Group meetings to begin working on and planning the event.
Who benefits from the fundraising?
The donations you provide will be used to change lives. World Vision puts the funds you raise to work by bringing emergency food aid to disaster zones and equipping families with the tools they need to overcome hunger in their communities.
