People up and down the country – including Miss Scotland, The Proclaimers and business woman Michelle Mone – are taking on SCIAF’s 40 Day Challenge.

Michelle dropped into the SCIAF office to help us launch our campaign and meet some of our supporters.

This year, we are focusing on the issue of hunger, and on our work in Ethiopia where over 6 million people will go to bed hungry tonight.

Michelle said: “No one should have to go to bed hungry - but over one billion people around the world do, every single night. SCIAF is helping people free themselves from poverty and hunger. That’s why I’m taking part in the 40 Day Challenge by giving up wine this Lent.

“I’d ask everyone to put a SCIAF WEE BOX in their classroom, their living room or bring one into work because if we all fill one up, we really can make a difference.”

There are loads of ways to fill your WEE BOX – visit the weebox website to find out more.
