Once you have made the decision to venture on a journey that will change your life, and after paying the deposit, all that's left for you to do is raise the outstanding amount! Daunted by the prospect? Don't be, it's a lot easier than it seems. You're not the first and certainly will not be the last to take on such a challenge. Embrace it for all it's worth.
From the time that you sign up for the adventure to the time that you depart you will not only be preparing yourself for the trek of a life-time but you will be expanding your social life by holding various fundraisers to help you meet your target amount. It's important to break it into smaller, more manageable targets, always remembering that you can't eat an elephant in one large bite!
Fundraising can be both easy and fun and it really is all down to the individual in question. It's a huge challenge to raise such an amount of money but remember it is extremely achievable. Over two hundreds and fifty individuals who have signed up to do our Challenges in the past have both met and exceeded similar targets before you; in saying that, the earlier you start your fundraising the better!
Here we have outlined a few ideas to help you to raise the target amount and get you on the trek of a lifetime an experience you will never forget! There is also a list of Do's and Don'ts to help you organise your events.
If you have any question please let us know and if you need any additional materials Concern will be happy to provide them.
