There are some things that you can do (of course, we will assisit you) to help you fundraise your program. In addition to helping you with the costs associated with a volunteering overseas program, fundraising does many things. It raises awareness of the project and its objective needs, opens the overseas volunteering ¨ doors¨ to more people, and for you, it helps with your expenses as well as being a valuable contribution to your CV/resume. Dont forget , you may fundraise for all or some of the following; Placement fee, airfare, living expenses and resources for both yourself and the project. Now for some basic information on how to get started! Decide how much you need | Why are you volunteering? Your donors will want to know this, besides, thinking about this will help you become passionate in your fundraising activities | Make a comprehensive list of everyone you know, this is always a good place to start | Maintain professionalism throughout your fundraising campaign | Approach local business¨ and organisations (rememeber, we can mention donors on our website and in other literature, this is particularly attractive for business) | Plan, plan and plan - and stay motivated. Always keep track and accurate records of who donated, and the value or description of the donation. And finally, dont forget to approach benevolent societies and trusts in your local area. You could offer them a presentation or newsletters upon your return, which details your volunteering experiences. And dont forget to ask us for any help, for instance, we can provide you with a letter of verification, set you up with a volunteerbrazil.com email address, provide you with photographs etc. For more information on fundraising your overseas volunteering program - please contact us: FUNDRAISING ENQUIRY
