•              Sign Up For THINKfast 2012

•              THINKfast brings youth together to explore the causes of poverty and social injustice and it inspires them to learn how they can make a difference in their community and in their world.

•              THINKfast is a 25-hour fast where breaking the fast together becomes a chance to be thankful and share in a Solidarity Celebration with our school community.

•              THINKfast empowers youth to live their faith and make socially responsible decisions about how they live their lives while also raising funds for the work of Development and Peace.

•              TOGETHER we can make a difference!

•              The 17th annual Thinkfast is happening at Vanier Catholic Friday May 4th and Saturday May 5th.  Thinkfast is a 25-hour educational and social justice awareness event. The activities and presentations during THINKfast promote active participation in a way that students learn more about the lives of their brothers and sisters in the Global South.

•              To participate in THINKfast, students must pick up a registration package from Mr. Connell before April 18th, 2012.  Students who would like to count the THINKfast 2012 for Community Service must raise a minimum of $50.00 in pledges for Development and Peace.
