Caritas Challenge

This year we took part in the Caritas challenge, and we got to choose out of doing three different things. To do the move it challenge which is doing lot's of sport for twenty-four hours and taking shifts for sleeping, the sweat it challenge which is working in shift's making things that we can sell to other people and the live it challenge which is sleeping in a cardboard box for a night. Out of these three things the Kaupeka choose the live it challenge, but we also incorporated the sweat challenge and the move it challenge into the it as well.
We did the Caritas challenge to fund raise for Timor-Leste which is a third world country in the southeast of Asia. On wristbands that we got it said 'One day of difference for a lifetime of change' , I think it means living differently for one day and fundraising for it you can make a better life for someone else. During the Caritas challenge I found it hard to get sleep because I was sleeping in a place I wasn't used to and also having to sleep without a pillow. It did mean that I learnt that elbows make good pillows! I also found it difficult to make our shelter. I think it would have been hard for people living in Timor-Leste who didn't have good building materials.

Have you ever done the Caritas challenge before, if you have what did you find difficult?
