You know what?

We really think that you are a star!

If you've just finished the 40 Hour Famine, then you've done something real to fight hunger and poverty around the world!

We think it's a powerful – and meaningful – way that you can experience what life is like for children who have to go without – Every. Single. Day.

So, now that you've gone without, how do you make it all count?

Simple: Make sure you bank the money you raised! Here's the lowdown on Banking:

Group Leaders

Remind your group members to round up their funds.

Donations can be received online via the Online Fundraising Pages or collected in person.

All money must be banked by 30 September 2011.

If your members have collected cash or cheques they need to give them to you.

It’s your job to take this to an ANZ branch with a deposit slip from your Group Leader's Kit.

The more often you bank your cash and cheques, the more up-to-date your online total will be.

Click here to bank online using a credit card.

You can total your Groups donation and make a single payment for that amount via credit card.

When you are on this page, be sure to click the third option, which states: “I'm a 40 Hour Famine Group Leader depositing donations made to my Group Members.”

Please be advised that because your group members have already given individual receipts to the people who gave these donations, your payment via credit card on this site is not a tax-deductible donation.

Group Members

It’s time to collect the promised money from all of those people who said “Sure, I'll support you”.

Remind everyone who supported you to pay up!

Remember that your supporters can either donate online or give you cash or a cheque.

You can enter the details of cash or cheques on your fundraising page so your total is up-to-date.

Got cash or cheques?

You must give these to your Group Leader by the date they specify.

Individuals

The big thing for Individual participants to know about the 40 Hour Famine is that it all happens online – so no receipt books and no trips to the bank.

All of your donations can be collected and posted through your online fundraising page.

All donations must be paid by 30 September 2011.

Keep an eye on your fundraising page to make sure the money is coming in.

(Online donations only, remember!)

Just log-in to your online fundraising page and apply for an Award before 30 September.
