This hasn't been mentioned yet, and it seems like we're giving the people who have never heard of the 30 Hour Famine a bad representation of what it stands for.
The 30 Hour Famine is not meant for one to do just to see how long they can go without eating. Sure, that is an interesting experiment to do, but the 30 Hour Famine is meant as a fundraiser to help children overseas that go hungry every single day. Another positive side affect is that it helps us to understand, in a very small way at that, what a day in the life of a starving child is really like, so we can better understand why we need to help them.
I think I've raised over the years approximately $3500 (CD).
