Mission Trip - Additional Info

All monies collected (gifts or student payments) for mission trips will have a 13% support service fee, so please take this into account when calculating the amount that students need to raise. This will help ensure that students raise enough to cover the support service fee and prevent the Mission account from ending with a deficit balance.
Is this Mission Trip in conjunction with any other missions agency (like Serge or MTW)?"

Please Note: Submitting this form notifies RUF national staff only. You are responsible for contacting the other mission agency you are working with to gather all final costs/details for the trip.
