I wanted to give you guys a better picture of where your support goes. I have to admit I stole most of this blog from a past racer but the details are still the same.
In order for me to be able to go on The World Race, I will need to raise $15,500.
Where does the money go?
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
As you can see, 65% of the funds that I will be raising go towards my expenses for the 11 months. Again, let me show you through a graph what this will look like.
My budget is broken down into these categories…
- Intercontinental Travel–$4,235.00
- Food–$1,256.25
- Lodging–$1,758.75
- Transportation–$1,005.00
- Long Distance Travel & Misc. Supplies–$1,115.55
In addition to the expense of $15,500, I will need to purchase/have donated the following items:
- Imunizations/medications
- plane tickets to and from training camp and launch and end point of race
- Race supplies including sleeping bag/clothing/tent etc.
DEADLINES: As with most fundraising, there are deadlines that are set up by AIM that I am required to meet. Here they are…
- $3,500 – (2 weeks before Training Camp) In May 2013
- $6,500 – (2 weeks prior to your trip) In July 2013
- $11,000 – (End of 3 months on the field)October 2013
- $15,500 – (End of 6 months on the field)January 2013
It is MORE than possible to have 100% of my funds raised before departure in July, will you be one of the people to make this a reality?
If you give just 2 dollars you are paying for my food for about a day. Only 10 dollars my food for about 5 days!
Please help The Lord send me out. Its only possible through your help.
