G1: Give to children in need: Participate in the 20 hour famine . Raise a minimum of $40.

On Saturday the 8th of June, I participated in my first 20 hour famine. It started off easy, but then became more difficult towards dinner time. I was only allowed to eat barley sugars and drink just juice or water. I only had about 5 barley sugars during the 20 hours.

The next day I woke up hungry and ready to finish the 20 hour famine, but I still had two and a half hours to go. I spent this time sitting next to the pantry on my xbox. When that time had finished I was more relieved than anything. So after my stack of pancakes and muffin's I didn't feel hungry anymore.

I have raised a total of $100. I joined the red team which was Brad and Marty from the edge, the amount raised by the red team was $77, 559.09 and the total raised all together by the teams was 216, 116. 62.

This years famine was to raise money for the children and communities of Bougainville Papua New Guinea.
