World Vision 40 Hour Challenge 2026

World Vision 40 Hour Challenge

We have chosen to do the backpack challenge and will pack everything we need into our back packs for 40 hours!

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.

Thank you again sponsors!

The kids are so thrilled to be part of this! Their small rural school has raised over $2300 for the cause! I love the enthusiasm, the conversations about how life can be so different in different countries and how lucky they are.

Ocean was kind enough to pack Leo extra snacks with his bag a bit full to fit everything! She’s excited and nervous about two nights in the tent!

Leo is so pleased with his little room in the tent! Pretty sure he packed more dog man books than food 😝

Thank you!!!!

Friday 12th Jun

Thank you so very much for your support! We appreciate every dollar! The kids are busy talking about staying in a tent with their back pack and what they might need to pack. Also how lucky they are to have all they have and how hard it might be to live life without all the things they have :)

Thank you to my Sponsors
