Breakdowns of how funds are designated for Global's Programs
This chart is a breakdown of how the funds raised by Team Members are spent on each trip under the Global Youth Network University Teams Program. Please keep in mind that the fees for all of the University Teams are pooled together and then distributed according to the needs of each team. Some teams may require more funding than others, depending on the particular country and the projects the team is doing, while the fees are the same for members of all the teams. We do this so that finances will not be a factor in deciding which team a student joins, and to equitably distribute the burden of fundraising among members of all the teams. Please also note that team leaders and team intern leaders travel at a price subsidized by the pooled resources of the program.
- Air Travel and Emergency Medical Insurance: Includes all necessary travel on commercial airlines for Team Members, Team Leaders, and other Global Youth Network staff, relating to the actual trip itself. In the case of Team Canada, this includes the vehicle rental. This also includes the cost of travel Medical Insurance written by RBC Financial.
- In-country Costs: Includes any expenses incurred by the teams once they reach their destination countries. This would include food and lodging, transportation within the country, occasional recreational activities, and other miscellaneous travel-related expenses.
- Leader & Team Training: Includes any expenses relating to our extensive training program for both team leaders and team members. Included in this category are things like books and workbooks, a three day leaders' retreat, periodic staff meetings with regional leadership, a three day orientation program for all team members, debriefing for the teams and a debriefing session for the leaders.
- Administration: Includes administrative expenses incurred while putting together the logistics of these trips. Includes ample First Aid supplies for each team.
- Project Development: Any costs related to researching and investigating prospective projects and organizations for the teams to work with on the trips as well as expenses required to maintain existing relations with international contacts.
- Operating Costs: As with all of Global's programs, a percentage of the University Team fee goes towards our organizational operations. Expenses such as, occupancy and office costs, insurance, staff support, promotions and the website.
