2024 SJSP
Eyebrows/Hair for Food Challenge
What would you do to feed 846 starving children for a year?
These SJSP 2024 Instructors and Volunteers are willing
to shave their eyebrows and/or heads!
Congratulations to SJSP 2024 staff, volunteers, family and friends on raising a total of $30,279.75 this summer through our various fundraisers to feed hungry children through Mary's Meals!
Vote with your dollars! All money will go to Mary's Meals to feed 846 children at Chaone Primary School in Malawi for an entire year. Over the past four years we've raised more than $100,000 through our Eyebrow Challenge alone. This year we expect to break $200,000 in total raised over seven years! Our staff has expanded our Eyebrow Challenge to include hair. We'll trade our eyebrows/hair for food to feed these children! Our head/hair... your money... their food! To vote, just click on one of the links below, which will take you to our Mary's Meals donation page. In the "public message" box, note the staff member's name and whether you want your donation to go toward shaving or saving his/her eyebrows or head! Eyebrow/Hair status can be viewed below. Red means danger! Green means safe! "Save" money will be added to the balance and "Shave" money will be deducted from the balance. Voting ends Friday morning, August 2nd, at 8:30am. Instructors with a positive (green) balance will keep their eyebrows/hair. Instructors with a negative (red) balance will lose their eyebrows/hair that morning on the morning show! You can vote online by clicking HERE or by donating in person at camp.
100% of the money raised will go to Mary's Meals!
