Section 4: Fundraising Ideas
If you want to take a GAP year, it can be expensive and difficult to fund - particularly if you are coming out of College or University.
Previously, volunteers have paid for up to 75% of their trip just through fundraising! From selling things that they no longer need to bag-packing at supermarkets to raise awareness in local communities - there are literally hundreds of ways you could make thousands of pounds. So we have compiled our comprehensive Fundraising Guide to help you every step of the way. It features:
Letter Writing: How to tailor your letter to suit the person/company you are writing to. The small things often make the big things happen!
Telephoning: Sometimes the more direct ways can be more effective but equally, it is important to remember to tailor your approach to suit the person/company you are calling to enhance your chances of success.
Staging an event: By holding your own event, you can get everybody in your local community involved! From friends and family to neighbours and local groups, the more interest you'll generate. Find out how to plan, prepare and hold a successful event!
A-Z of ideas: If you are simply stuck for ideas on what types of things you can do to fundraise and bolster your savings, look no further!
The Five Key Factors: Sometimes the most simplest ideas and the most effective and you'll be amazed that they are staring straight at you and you've even realised!
