Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) fast for one day each month (typically the first Sunday). The money that they would have spent on food is donated to the poor. A 'true fast' is considered to be abstaining from at least two consecutive meals, but those with health or nutritional problems are asked to do what they can without risking their health.
Mormons may also fast more often, if they choose to. It is common when a congregation member is seriously ill for a congregational fast to be held. Mormons also have personal fasts for various reasons.
