Papamoa College Leos were over the moon at the result of students' fundraising efforts for this years' 40 Hour Famine .

A huge thanks to our community for getting behind this great cause, which will provide funds to fight the hunger epidemic in sub-Saharan Africa.

A collective total of over $4,700 was raised by students, the highest amount raised since Papamoa College began fundraising in 2012. 

More than 45 students raised funds from $13 up to a spectacular $345 each. Nineteen students raised over $100 and two raised almost $350! Congratulations to Emily O’Callaghan Y12 and Gemma Van Huenen Y13 for their massive efforts.

Students were encouraged in their fundraising efforts through a google classroom dedicated to the 40 Hour Famine and with a daily help desk, available for the four weeks leading up to the event.
