World Vision 40 Hour Challenge 2026

World Vision 40 Hour Challenge

I will run 40km in 40 hours - 1km every hour from Friday 4pm until Sunday 8am. Please sponsor me and maybe join me for a lap!

I'm raising funds so families in Solomon Islands can get the seeds, tools and skills they need to grow crops to feed their children in a changing climate.

This kaupapa matters because in the Pacific region, 1 in 6 kids are living in severe food poverty. Together, rangatahi in Aotearoa can help change that.

Your support would mean so much to me. Please donate today so kids in the Pacific get enough food to grow up healthy and strong.

Now’s the time to stand up and make a difference for our neighbours in the Pacific.

Hello

Wednesday 13th May

My name is Finley Sharman, I am participating in the the 40 hour challenge because I believe it is necessary to take some action against the poverty that occurs in so many different countries arround the world including the soloman islands. It is outrages that people everyday suffer to drink water and eat food while we go on holidays and eat at restuaruants.

To take action I will be running 40km in 40 hours - I will run 1km every hour for 40 hours.

I would love for you to help out and even join me for a km!

Finley
