World Vision 40 Hour Challenge 2026

World Vision 40 Hour Challenge

The World Vision 40 Hour Challenge is New Zealand's largest youth fundraising campaign, empowering Kiwi kids to change everything by taking on creative challenges. This year, the cause is all about providing life-changing clean water and nutritious food to children and families in need around the world.

For my challenge this year, I am giving up all furniture for 40 hours. This means no beds, no couches, and no chairs—I'll be living, relaxing, and sleeping on the floor! It will definitely be tough and uncomfortable, but it's a small sacrifice to help highlight the realities faced by those who lack basic comforts.

I am raising money as part of the amazing team at Heaton Normal Intermediate, and we want to make a massive impact to change lives. Your donation will directly fund vital resources like clean water systems and nutritional support, helping kids stay healthy and safe. By sponsoring me, you aren't just supporting my difficult floor-living challenge; you are giving hope to vulnerable children across the globe. Please consider making a donation today to support me and Heaton Normal Intermediate!
