Planning for a world mission trip isn't an off-the-cuff affair and one must have satisfactory finance resources to back the charitable activities. Mission trips can include numerous tasks like providing food, medications, proper garments; mending and making habitable facilities for the needy. If you have plans for a mission trip which is designed to change the lives of the people, start raising enough funds to make the trip a hit. Organising a fundraiser can be a useful option to serve your purpose with world missions (http://www.overlandmissions.com/expeditions/article/summer-mission-short-term-mission-trips-christian-missions-trips/) .
Visit the church and speak to the pastor about the mission trip and the event you wish to organize for the same. The authorities may allow you to spread the word about the trip and the fundraiser event in the service and encourage its congregation members for a special offering to fund your cause.
Make a fundraising note that includes the details of the places you intend to visit, the activities and projects you'll be involved in during the trip, an appealing photograph of the place, the fiscal constraints and the event you are arranging for a similar. Also supply information on how one can send you money for the cause. Send the letter to your contacts, acquaintances and family members.
Select products or services that you'll sell at the event. It can be food over a dinner, nibbles party; or rummage sales or some professional services like cleaning, painting, stitching that will pull a good crowd. Prepare the date and venue of the event. You can have the event organised in a church as the authorities are more than willing to hold these sorts of activities.
Advertise the event in the locality thru fellow members. Gather supplies for the event and make the arrangements. Create tickets for the event and have a contribution box ready for people to contribute their shares. Talk about the mission trip over an interactive session at the event.
