We believe that is it never too young to start caring. YES, even children can do something to effect change by raising their awareness on poverty and giving them opportunity to help those in need.

Just like the 30-Hour Famine, instead of fasting from solid food for 30 hours, children age 12 and below will be fasting for 8 hours.

Besides that, Kidz Famine participants will get a glimpse of what is it to live in a condition of hunger, in a safe manner through Famine Challenges and suggested educational movies. Participants will break-fast at respective DIY Camp at the end of the 8th hour of the fast.

Get involved.
