Tribute for God's District
My name is Chace Hawkins and I'm about to embark on journey. And I need help to get there so I'm going to test my survival skills, experience a week with the most basic tools, giving up all luxuries, just as I will when I begin my missions for God in foreign lands. Will you be the sponsor to my personal Hunger Games?

"Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?" (Isaiah 6:8)

More donations

Chace just got sent $20 to the water, ice, soap, and fan and $70 donation will give him more water, some gatorades to keep his electrolytes up, more granola bars and some cans of beans and tuna. But lets keep going! He can use as much water and food as you can send!

Update on Donations

Also! You should know that if we get to $600 in sponsor money then he will be crowned the Champion of the Hunger Games and be taken on his tour of all the districts (he will be free to leave). We’re only $200 shy of that goal so don’t give up on him! Keep donating items or even send in money per day he survives (currently on day four). Thank you to all who have already donated. We really appreciate the support and participation in this fundraiser.

Good Morning on the Fourth Day of my journey!

Good morning world Chace here. It is the fourth day out here. Thanks to you all I’ve been pretty comfy out here but unless you guess are planning to rescue me some time soon I am going to need more food and especially water. And because of our phone situation I will only be posting 1 video at the end of the day.

Food Challenges

Apparently Chace’s mess kit didn’t come with eating utensils and he shovel his meal into his mouth with a cup. So that has been added to the list, as well as other forms of simple entertainment that he might enjoy—playing cards, a gameboy, or you might wish him to sharpen his skills with throwing knives or his bow and arrow (the other tributes might be a challenge!) and those are offered for him too. see the list and donate! — http://tributeforgod.tumblr.com/tools

Physical Comforts - Check, Mental State - ???

Chace’s physical comforts are mostly met! But trouble is his mental state is in jeopardy! Imagine if you had to sit at a campsite by yourself for days on end. You’d go a bit mad too. He is limited on how far he can wander due to his location. So exploring his surroundings is limited. So we are adding things to the list—word searches, a sketch book and pencil, maybe even a gameboy if you think he deserves that much entertainment. Interested in saving him from himself, then check out the fully updated list—-> http://tributeforgod.tumblr.com/tools

Life of Survival Update and Breaking the Rules

(all further posts are being composed by Chace’s older sister)

Our rule was: No human interaction/contact.

Trouble is he also needs to have a functioning phone at all hours in case of an emergency (as well as our original plan to have him make his own videos and posts through out the day but that has hit a snag—something else we’re working on at the moment). The concern is that today his phone didn’t make it through the day and our plan to have battery switch out done remotely (switching out his battery for a fully charged one) was not possible because the second battery didn’t have a full charge yet.

For this reason, the rule had to be broken so that we could reassess the situation and come to an agreement on how to proceed. Our solution should work but we aplogise for being so terrible and breaking that rule on the first night. However, that shouldn’t be the case after this evening.

However, we are now able to give you all a lovely update on his first day out. He has a fire started, a shelter built that he believes should withstand the rain (but he could always use a tarp to ensure against the rain or even a tent, which would make it far easier and he won’t get eaten in his sleep). He even made himself tea. Yes, tea! Scattered out in the woods were some trash items (plastic bags and empty water bottles) and you can boil water and use a hard-wood tree bark and make tea—who would have thought?! I didn’t.

He now has a mess kit, a camper meal of cheesy tomato pasta, a gallon of water, and a can of tuna (nee beans). Of course he won’t be able to live on that for the next several days so check out the tools page again and again and send him more things! You all are great and doing so well at helping him survive so far so keep it up!
