Deposit

We will require an initial deposit of £200 when you apply to join the trip. This is to secure your place on the team and will be deducted from the total direct costs of the trip.

 

Direct costs

Direct costs include travel, accommodation, insurance, food and water. Direct costs will normally range from £800 to £1,500 per volunteer.

 

Sponsorship

An important part of these challenge events is fundraising. We challenge team members to fundraise to help Habitat for Humanity achieve its vision of a world where everyone has a decent place to live. We ask team members to raise £350 (£500 for Corporate team members) or more as a donation for Habitat for Humanity. Many team members are able to double this and some raise much more. With this donation we will be able to fund building costs where you will be working. In most countries, team fundraising will fund at least one complete house.

 

We have a 'toolbox' of fundraising ideas and will send this to you when we accept your application. We also run briefing days, which include a session on fundraising ideas.
