HiddenAre you interested in utilizing a TTW Team Leader?* No thanks, we've got all our own leaders and are covered. Yes, let's discuss the options. HiddenDo you have proof of Background Check Clearance for anyone 18 or older?*Touch the World requires that each Team Leader and any participant 18 or older provide proof of background check clearance. The cost for TTW to run your checks is up to $20 per background check. The total fees would be deducted from your group deposit. I'm able to provide proof of clearance for all team leaders and participants 18 or older. I want Touch the World to run background checks for my eligible participants. HiddenDonation ProcessingDue to the many variables and uncertainties of COVID-19, TTW will be unable to provide trip fundraising for summer 2021. Since funds are non-refundable when given directly to TTW by individual donors, it works in the churches favor to collect and hold the funds (which are still tax deductible) until payment to TTW is required. At that time, a check may be sent by the church to cover deposits/costs of trip. TTW will work directly with the group coordinator to ensure this process is seamless. Thank you for understanding.Budget & Fundraising OptionsTouch the World will use your answers to the following questions to prepare your Trip Quote Agreement. That quote will include an individual per person trip cost that you can use to advertise your trip. Please fill in your best estimates to help us prepare an accurate quote.Number of Team Leaders Anticipated*Touch the World requires at least 2 leaders per team (one of each gender unless it is a single-sex team) with a preferred student to leader ratio of 4:1.Please enter a number from 2 to 5.Number of Students Anticipated*Calculates based on the Estimated Group Size you entered initially.Would you like to utilize Touch the World's online fundraising platform?*All teams are responsible for meeting a 50% team funding deadline and 100% team funding deadline. Touch the World offers an online fundraising platform that will enable your team members to individually raise funds towards the total team goal. Please note: participants are raising funds toward the total TEAM cost. These funds do not belong to the individual, but are recognized according to IRS 501c3 guidelines as a donation towards the ministry. Donations are not refundable, under any circumstance, according to the law.Yes please!No, but thank you! We have our own systems in place. We will issue payment at the 50% and 100% deadlines.Would you like your students to raise the full team cost (including leader costs)?*We recommend including team leader costs in the student fundraising (which will increase the individual cost for the student) because we believe that leaders are a valuable part of the team and sacrificing their time to participate. We can prepare your Trip Quote Agreement with a per person fundraising goal for students that includes the cost of your leaders. However, if your final headcount differs from your estimated headcount which you have submitted above, student fundraising may not cover the full leader costs. In this case, we will first pull from excess funds raised and then your $750 security deposit. If the total leader costs are still not covered, we will invoice you the remaining amount.Yes please!No thanks! Please create the Trip Quote Agreement without adding the leader costs to the students' fundraising goal.Transportation DetailsHow will your team travel to your location?* Driving Flying Ground Transportation It is your group's responsibility to secure ground transportation: 1) to and from The Mission Center for training, 2) to and from your trip location, and 3) onsite during your trip. Fuel and tolls cannot be reimbursed.Ground Transportation when Flying Domestic It is your group's responsibility to secure ground transportation: 1) to and from The Mission Center for training, 2) to and from the airport, and 3) onsite during your trip.

Fuel and tolls cannot be reimbursed. Your host will provide onsite transportation during your trip.Would you like Touch the World to arrange your flights?*Touch the World is only able to secure group bookings when you have 10 or more participants. What are group bookings? Airlines put aside blocks of seats to reserve for groups at the main cabin rate (not economy). This means that the price per ticket will be slightly more than you would find on a search engine website looking for the cheapest flights. The advantage is that those seats can be reserved without immediate payment. A confirmed headcount (of 10 or more) will be required 90-60 days before trip departure. Final payment is due at time of TTW’s 50% fundraising deadline (typically 60-30 days before departure). Yes, I have 10+ participants and want TTW to arrange our flights. No, we will arrange our own flight transportation. By choosing this option, I understand that I may not include the total airfare costs into the total trip goal to be raised through TTW. I will also be completely responsible for all flight changes, travel complications, visa requirements, etc. Airport Preferences*Please select all airports you are open to flying/out of for the best price options.
