  • Help your student brainstorm and reach out to adults in their lie that would be potential supporters.

  • Consider sending out-of-town relatives a personal email or flyer with a handwritten letter from your student.

STUDENTS

  • Use specific amounts when asking:

    • “Could you cover a week of my expenses for $75?

    • “Would you be able to help sponsor me for a month for $275?”

    • “Can you help me out with a one-day sponsorship for only $10?”
