Thanks to one of the girls on my squad, Anna Maillet, I found out more details about where the money that I fundraise goes. $15,500 is no chump change and as I put on events, seek donations, and ask for support from those around me, I want you all to know how Adventure in Missions disperses the dough. So here it is…
My 65% covers the following:
- $4,235 for our intercontinental travel for the year
-
$460 per month, broken down as:
- $3.75 per day for food
- $5.25 per day for lodging
- $3.00 per day for transport
- $3.33 per day for long distance travel (buses, trains) and miscellaneous supplies
HOW CAN YOU HELP?
Here are our the fundraising deadlines for the January 2012 World Rae:
- $3,500 – Due 10/1/2011 (2 weeks before Training Camp)
- $6,500 – Due 12/18/2011 (2 weeks prior my trip)
- $11,000 – Due 4/1/2011 (End of 3 months on the field)
- $15,500 – Due 7/1/2011 (End of 6 months on the field)
Ideally my goal is to have all of my support raised even before I leave the country. That would allow me to fully immerse myself in God's work while in the mission field and not have to try to fundraise while overseas.
