Making it Real
September 5, 2024
Last week, we had Sarah Miller from World Vision speak to students in senior school at a lunchtime session, during which they were able to learn more about the impact they can make.
We celebrated the achievements of last year’s students and the impact of the 40 Famine in 2023 including providing 578,428 tons of food in a month to people in Syria and Lebanon, assisting 800 farmers in Ghana to reforest their land whilst improving their productivity as well as helping over 7,000 Ghanaian farmers in their food production so they can grow new crops such as cashews and mangoes. These are real people in real places who have been assisted by people across Australia (including CGS) coming together. This year, we are set to do it all again.
Over the coming weeks, we have around 20 Senior School students participating in challenges ranging from not talking for 40 hours or riding 40 km to giving up YouTube, gaming and watching sports for 40 hours.

Sincere thanks for any support provided to our students in their campaign to reduce hunger for children globally around the world.
