Ration Challenge 2023

Sunday 18 – Saturday 24June 2023

You can now register to take part in the Ration Challenge 2023! 

It’s been a difficult few years, and it has been hard to watch violent conflicts continue around the world, including the those still ongoing in Ukraine, Afghanistan and Gaza. 

We’ve seen a growing number of natural disasters and climate-induced catastrophes, like the devastating earthquakes in Syria and Türkiye earlier this year, and the recent double cyclone in Vanuatu. 

In the last year alone, the number of people forcibly displaced rose from 84 million to more than 103 million.

When you take the Ration Challenge 2023, you can do something that really makes a difference. 

How does it work? 

For one week in June, you’ll eat the same rations as a Syrian refugee – just a small amount of rice, lentils, flour, chickpeas, beans, fish and oil – and get sponsored to do it. 

The money you raise will support people forcibly displaced with emergency food, healthcare and life-changing support. You’ll be helping support Syrian refugees, living in Jordan, many of whom fled their homes when the war broke out in Syria. And you’ll also be supporting other communities around the world who have been impacted by conflict or disaster. 

And by sharing your Ration Challenge experience with those around you, you'll be creating real change in your community by raising awareness for this important issue at a time when it is needed more than ever.
