Funding

Habitat for Humanity is a great organization setup with strong moral values based upon God and all of his children…. Us! When you go on a habitat for humanity trip, whether it is in the United States or globally, they want to you to spread the word about the organization and tell others what you are doing and why.

To do mission building trips like this, it does cost money. The money goes towards building supplies and materials and the person’s food and lodging. Each building site or place of fix-up is different depending on the culture and environment in which they live; this particular trip to Thailand cost $1650. Within this budget, airfare is not included which adds another give or take $1500.

Due to my late decision on taking this trip, I only had a few months to do any fundraising. What I chose to do, and as many of you know because you received them, was sent out letters telling people what I was doing and why.

I have had a huge support base from doing that and I appreciate everyone for not only financial support, but their love, thoughts, and prayers.
