We have a plan for every fundraising journey
With 60 years of experience and insights from thousands of teachers and travelers, we know what works. And we know every family is unique, which is why we created five sample plans tailored to different needs and goals.
Some students jump into fundraising on their own, but if you prefer a more structured path, you’re in the right place. Whether you’re just getting started, looking to get creative, working as a group, or ready to move fast, there’s a proven plan to help you succeed.
For students who want to involve their family in the fundraising process, or have their parents take the lead.
For younger EF travelers who need more guidance and support.
For students who want to utilize their artistic talents.
For friends, teams, or classmates traveling together.
For students who joined closer to the tour date or want last-minute, but high-impact fundraising.
Seamless, secure, and straight to your tour fund: Your no-fee fundraising page
Once you enroll your child on their teacher’s EF tour, you’ll gain access to a unique donation page made just for them. It’s easy to share, so friends and family can securely contribute a little something here and there that’s automatically applied toward your balance.
