Gapwork voluntary gap year placements tips: Fundraising

Voluntary placements, ecotourism, community development and conservation projects, treks and expeditions all offer pure adventure and an incredible gap year. It all costs, but the returns are huge and often the fundraising you will undertake to raise the money can offer an invaluable experience as well - it shows future employers that you can organise yourself and motivate other people to give you money, so keep a log of everything you do!
