The 2017 Act for Peace Ration Challenge has launched!
There is a crisis in our world right now. Millions of people, forced to leave their homes, are now in desperate need of food, shelter and medical care.
Raise money and awareness for communities threatened by conflict and disaster, take the Act for Peace Ration Challenge. Join more than 10,000 people across Australia, living on refugee rations during Refugee Week (18-25 June).
Eat the same as a Syrian refugee living in a camp in Jordan, a small amount of rice, lentils, chick peas, beans, fish and oil. That’s it. No red meat, no coffee, and no alcohol!
By taking this challenge you’re giving refugees the food, medicine and support they need to survive. You’re showing them that they’re not alone, that people in Australia are compassionate, and we’re prepared to do what it takes to help others in need.
This year, around 3,000 people will be putting themselves in the shoes of a Syrian refugee for a week.
Will you join them?

It’s going to be tough.
It’s going to be eye-opening.
It’s going to give hope and comfort to refugees from Syria and around the world.
