Each team member of a Volunteers in Mission team is expected to fund their own way. Funding can be direct payment by the individual, or raised through fundraising activities. Many churches will support fundraising activities to send members on VIM trips.

Here are some fund raising ideas you might consider. Use your imagination.

Bake sale

Wash cars

Hike/bike/walk for $/mile

Donation banks

Sponsorships

Hire out work for donations

Product sales

Sponsorship yard signs

Raffles

Talent Shows

Golf Tournaments

Collect aluminum cans

Auctions (Ebay or otherwise)

Pancake supper

 

Money raised by the team member will be used to pay all travel costs and all living expenses while at the host area including food, lodging, and ground transportation. Extra expenses that may be incurred by the individual are meals while in transit, souvenirs, and snacks.
