One Day to Feed the World
One Day to Feed the World is Convoy of Hope’s campaign that transforms lives. When everyone commits to giving one day’s salary, we harness the power of equal sacrifice instead of focusing on equal giving.
Calculate how much you make each workday, and set that amount as your One Day to Feed the World giving goal. Then give your gift. It’s that easy! No matter what you make, you play a significant role in transforming people’s lives.
Join with Church 52 to change the world and give your One Day on January 26th!
