Hello amig@s!
I am writing now to ask that you consider supporting me on this journey.
The average cost of each YAGM volunteer is $11,000 (this includes-flights, health insurance, housing, food allowance, local cell phones, 3 retreats, and a small living stipend). The ELCA covers most of the expense, but encourages each volunteer to raise at least $4,000.
Here's how you can help:
Make A Donation
Mail in this form with a check or call 1-800-638-3522 to make a credit card donation. Please be sure to use my contribution code "GCS3188" (write it along with my name in the memo line of the check, or tell it to the person on the phone).
Buy a calendar date
The cost to support me per day is $30. If you have a day that is significant to you, your friends, or family (birthdays, anniversaries, arbor day etc.), please consider buying that day. If you decide to buy a calendar date email me (apaigekaplan@gmail.com) the date you'd like to purchase. When that day comes, I will post a shout-out on my blog and newsletter and send you an email with pictures and an update of how I celebrated your special day.
While the financial support is helpful, the most important support I can receive for this coming year is your thoughts and prayers (and hopefully some letters!). Thanks in advance for following my ~journey~
xo,
Alyssa
