- Events for the summer must be publicized by [a certain date] and will be the events for which the year’s fundraisers can be used.
- Every Servant Event or Youth Gathering will have a non-refundable deposit, due upon registration and not to exceed 20% of the total trip cost.
- When a youth registers for the event they will receive an estimate on how much their financial responsibility for the trip will be.
- Beyond the deposit, the youth and their families have a financial responsibility to pay for the rest of their trip. This responsibility can be taken care of through a cash or check payment or through fundraisers.
- Three months before the trip, or no later than early booking for the trip, 50% of the money must be raised or paid by the youth or family. (Early booking may include airfare, hotels, car rental, etc.)
- Three weeks before the trip 100% of the money must be raised or paid by the youth or family.
- Each fundraiser has a set guideline for how money is to be distributed.
- The church will provide the opportunities for the youth to raise the funds, but this policy puts the responsibility for the success of the fundraisers upon the participation from the youth and their families.
