Going Hungry so Others Can Eat

Nearly 60 young people took part in a 24-hour starve-in at St Mary's Church as part of the church's effort to raise funds for the relief of Pakistan refugees, and nearly $150 was raised. The campaign was organised by the St Mary's Youth Club and it contributed about $150 to the fund.
