Testimonials

“My company offers volunteering and ethical travel placements. We have worked with FundMyTravel over the past two years and many of our volunteers have used the platform to raise funds for their placement. I have found FundMyTravel to be a professional and friendly service and would happily recommend it to others.”

“Many of our volunteers have used FundMyTravel to help make raising the funds for their placements a simple and easy process. Volunteers can personalise their fundraising page and provide information about what donations will be going towards as well as the achievements that our volunteers are working towards. FundMyTravel help volunteers to budget for their placement, incentivise potential donors and easily share information about their placements and fundraising progress with friends and family!”

“FundMyTravel has been a great partner, which allows our students to raise funds to study abroad. Their Resources section provides excellent guidance for creating an effective campaign, and the Featured Campaign section has been a valuable learning tool for students to see what does and doesn’t work when fundraising. We are grateful for our partnership with FundMyTravel!”

“FundMyTravel provides a valuable resource for our participants to raise money for their programs with us. Our participants have raised over $12,000 for their programs! It also gives us an additional platform to promote our programs, as each campaign has our profile and a link to our website.”

“When I started to research campaign platforms, I sought out platforms that supported those embarking on a volunteer/service based project. I stumbled upon Fund my Travel and knew it was going to be the perfect fit. Although there wasn't a customer service number, the team was able to respond to my emails and helped to add a few additional touches to my page. Looking forward to launching another in the near future! ”

“FundMyTravel was something I didn't even know about until another International teacher told me to try it. I've never done a fundraiser and honestly hadn't considered it until it was brought to my attention. Support is the key word in all this. You always hope for support but you never know how much you really have until you ask. I was moved by how much people value teaching and teachers and was deeply touched by the number of people who remembered teachers they loved and supported me on their behalf. (The) Best advice I could give to future campaigners is this; hope is valuable, never lose it. Even if the campaign starts slowly, keep trying, keep getting it out there. We all have commonalities and someone will relate to your struggle, never lose hope in that.”

“Studying abroad has always been a dream of mine, and that dream has now become a reality thanks to FundMyTravel. Financial strain initially deterred my interest in my program, and I was not confident that I could afford it without taking out loans. However, after researching more into FundMyTravel, I decided to launch my fundraising campaign. Within 50 days, I reached my goal of $2,665. I could not have done it without the support of my incredibly generous friends and family. A large portion of my funds raised were from a Christmas cookie bake sale that I had in December. I successfully made $850 in profit and each dollar went to my campaign. I am happy to say that I will be on my way to the Netherlands in March 2026 to learn more about Dutch classroom strategies and methods. My biggest tip to anyone who wants to fundraise is to market yourself everywhere! Share the link, ask friends and family to share the link, and post QR codes that work with your link around your workplace or school if possible. I highly suggest other fundraising strategies like bake sales, yard sales, etc. to further your success. I emailed past professors and mentors as well who made contributions. As my fundraising went up, more people began to donate. You truly never know who is willing to donate, so don’t miss out on an opportunity! ”
