Does anyone know if there are fundraisers to help going over seas to learn. Our daughter was invited by People to People Organization to go to Europe and France next summer for 18 days to learn about history and lives of the people there.

You could take out a private loan, but People to People also provide loans and scholarships. Depending on her age, she could maybe work part-time towards it, take on babysitting jobs, etc. to help defray some of the costs.

I personally studied abroad in Costa Rica and I downloaded a fundraising rubric worksheet from the web and kind of like a resume on word where you just put in your own info. You could write 2 paragraphs one about what she hopes to accomplish and the other talking about the People to People organization and its credibilty and its website info. I then sent mine to family and friends asking for small donations. It should determination and hardwork and I got lots of small donations which really helped out. Good luck!
