As the first genuine response in this thread, I'd like to say, yes, perhaps I will do it this year. Seems like a well worthy cause, a good way to lose a bit of weight and not too much effort required. Only problem is everyone I know is cheap and wouldn't support it.

I'm doing the 40 Hour Famine.
(It is implied that I am not eating for 40 hours, as per the name of the activity)
But yeah, has everyone become cheapskates or what? I did it a few years ago and I swear it was a hell of a lot easier finding people with money.

ofc, why sponsor people to not eat when u can just donate to charity directly

Raises awareness of the situation in third world countries. So by sponsoring people who take part in the program, you're helping to raise awareness.

I would've gone without eating but i'm a vego and mum hates it so she'd go off if i didn't eat at all. next year i wanna go blind for 40 hours i chose not to talk because people in 3rd world countries dont really have a voice...if you know what i mean.

that's past the point, i'm giving up speaking to experience what it is like to not be able to say "i want this" or "stop that".

Rents wouldnt let me give up food. Speaking is also something we take for granted.

Kawaiin, it looks like you don't have a say in the 40-Hour famine seeing as your parents didn't let you give up food.
