I have to raise $15,500 to go on the World Race, $3,500 of which is due October 9th to secure my spot at training camp. I still have $2,170 to raise before my first deadline is met and I would like to answer the questions of my supporters and potential supporters about where this money is going, specifically.
I hope this helps you guys out a little bit!
As a World Racer, the $15,500 is broken down like so…
- Training Camp- $320 (Covers my cultural training before departure
- Field Support- $620 (Help to get my squad supplies, local contacts, etc.
- WR Development Program- $1,860 (Improvements and Developments
- Administration Fees- $2,635 (Processing, paying the staff who sets up all of our travel, meals, missions, etc.
- World Racer- $10,075
As you can see, 65% of the funds that I will be raising go towards my expenses for the 11 months of my Race. This will look like so…
My budget is broken down into these categories…
- Intercontinental Travel- $4,235
- Food- $1,256.25
- Lodging- $1,758.75
- Transportation- $1,005
