In order for me to be able to go on The World Race, I need to raise $15,500.
You may be thinking that this is a lot of money. However, I challenge you to consider how long I will be gone. $15,000 for nearly a year is not bad right?
So your next question is, probably, “Where does the money go? How are you going to live off of this for 11 whole months?”
Well, because I am a visual learner, I’ve put this in graph form for you…
As a World Racer, the $15,500 is broken down by these categories…
Training Camp–$320
Field Support–$620
WR Development Program–$1,860
Administration Fees–$2,635
World Racer–$10,075
65% of the funds that I will be raising go towards my expenses for the 11 months.
This 65% covers my travel, food, lodging, and transportation.
As with most fundraising, there are deadlines that are set up by AIM that I am required to meet. Here they are…- $3,500 – Due 6/30/2012 (2 weeks before Training Camp)
- $6,500 – Due 8/18/2012 (2 weeks prior to my trip)
- $11,000 – Due 12/1/2012 (End of 3 months on the field)
- $15,500 – Total Due 3/1/2013 (End of 6 months on the field)
I would LOVE to have 100% of my funds raised before departure in September!
I know that God will provide for all of my needs.
