Macau Famine

Macau Famine 2021 has been successfully held

A series of Macau Famine 2021 activities, namely, Red Packet Campaign, Drawing Competition, Flag Day, School Famine, Charity Sale, Skip-A-Meal and 10-Hour Self-Famine, has been held during January to May this year.

We thank all participants and volunteers for their active participation, and all our sponsors and supporting groups for their generosity in blessing starving children and families affected by natural disasters.

We thank our honorary guests for officiating at the opening ceremony of Macau Famine 2021, to call for awareness on the needs of starving children and families.

We are grateful for the support of schools, students and parents, who generously shared with starving children their red packets filled with blessings.

Our appreciation also goes to primary school students who submitted art pieces of love and creativity, and the adjudicators who painstakingly picked the winning work for the drawing competition.

Despite the pandemic, many schools, organisations and volunteers showed their support for Flag Day, rendering the event to take place smoothly.

The little flags drew us closer to starving children far away.

Organisations supported starving children and families by participating in Skip-A-Meal and workshops.

In the workshop of “Life Auction”, participants learnt not to take food and water for granted.

The pandemic did not stop us from caring for needy children. By skipping a meal and participating in workshops, we had a glimpse of what it is like to live in hunger.

During a simulation activity, participants role-played as child laborers and had to make shoes to earn food.

We offered a smart credit card case with RFID-blocking function for this year's charity sale, so that you might enhance your personal data privacy while helping to attain food security for starving children.

Famine activities may be over now, but the mission to help starving children goes on. We encourage you to continue to care for starving children and sow hope for them:

Floods in Zimbabwe flush everything away

9-year-old Natasha now finds herself at risk of starvation and loss of education following the unusual weather in Zimbabwe last year. When cyclones and hailstorms destroyed her home, her family’s poultry and her school books were all washed away by the floods. Her family, already poor prior to the disasters, is now unable to pay for the children's school fees. As even food has become unaffordable, the family can only eat two meals of cornmeal porridge a day.

Affected by climate change, some areas in Africa have been experiencing persistent droughts, while others have been going through floods. The unseasonal downpours have caused the locust swarms that ravage the remaining crops. Let’s help the affected families and children overcome their hardships!
