Have you won a pair of Levi's® Jeans?

Levi's
The results are in!

Congratulations to the 100 winners of our Levi's® Jeans competition!

Cheryl Yeong (http://40hf.com/CherylYeong) from Victoria has topped the list after raising an amazing $2,120 dollars over the four days of the competition! She must've asked everyone and anyone for a donation and it shows - she received 34 separate donations and most of them were $20 - $40 each. Wow! Great work Cheryl!

Next up was Bob Beaumont (http://40hf.com/BobBeaumont), a group member of the fantastic Blackwood Famine Village in South Australia. They had a huge weekend and Bob's fundraising prowess has shown how supportive the community in Blackwood are.

Third on the list was Sarah Morling, who participated as an Individual and did a stellar job of raising money over the weekend.

Others in the Top 20 of note include Anya Hersch, who actually topped the list the week before during our competition with The Body Shop. Anya managed to back up a strong opening week with a great Famine weekend! Top Stuff!

Also, in the mix is Jesse Poulton (http://40hf.com/jessepoulton) from Leongatha in Victoria. Jesse was the Victoria Youth Ambassador in 2009 and it's fantastic to see him continuing his involvement with World Vision and the 40 Hour Famine.

Caitlin Lee (http://40hf.com/caitlinlee), who placed just behind Jesse in 13th position, has also caught our eye with her great blog - Globally Thinking - check it out here: http://globallythinking.wordpress.com
