Dear Parent/Guardian, Your son/daughter has shown an interest in participating in the World Vision 30 Hour Famine. Participation means that your child will: 1.) Sign-up 30 Hour Famine sponsors and collect money to help those around the world who suffer from hunger, poverty, and lack of hope. 2.) Miss three main meals by fasting for 30 hours (Friday, March 14 & Saturday, March 15, 2003) 3.) Drink only water and juice during those 30 hours. 4.)

Although Parent Consent is not a requirement of the 30 Hour Famine, some organizers have found it helpful to let parents know that their kids are participating. An additional information sheet is on page 26. This form is a suggestion of what you might want to send to parents. If you wish to use it, please feel free to photocopy it (or print). |
