What is the World Hunger Campaign? All you need to do is give up something for one month, and get sponsored for your efforts. It doesn’t take much to make a big difference to someone who has nothing - all year round. And, you can do this campaign at any time of the year!
Simply do without one of your little luxuries and have your friends and family sponsor you. It could be anything: from chocolate, to television, to your car or coffee – it’s up to you.
Register as an individual, or encourage a group from work or school to join you in the campaign.
5 Easy steps to make a difference
STEP 1
Email info@careaustralia.org to register for the campaign kit. It only takes two minutes!
STEP 2
Once you have registered for your campaign kit, set up an online fundraising page by following the simple instructions. Send this to as many people as you like and watch your fundraising efforts grow.
STEP 3
Give something up. Hide those chocolate bars or the remote control! Do what you need to meet the challenge you have set yourself.
STEP 4
The more the merrier. Challenge your colleagues or friends to give something up as well; it will make things more interesting and add some fun and competition.
STEP 5
Finally, at the end of the month organise an event to do a WORLD OF GOOD! Acknowledge the efforts of your colleagues in a small celebration. Arrange a special event such as a morning tea or trivia night, where successful participants can bask in the glory of their efforts, raise some additional cash and help CARE in the fight against global poverty. And for those who can’t resist the temptation? Well, you can decide…
GO ON, DO WITHOUT AND DO A WORLD OF GOOD!
