How is the $15,500 used for the World Race?
$15,500 sounds like a lot of money, but when you take in to account how it will be used and what expenses it covers, it really doesn't sound like a lot. Below are some pie charts to show you how the money you are donating will be used. (Note: this does not include the cost of gear, traveler's insurance, and shots/vaccinations before the race. All of this will cost me around an additional $3,000 when all is said and done.)
