"Start by asking people who know you: friends and family. They are most likely to give, and assuming they do, that gives you evidence to show to other people you don't know so well that you've already had some success. People like to support successful activities. Find out what has worked before. What have past Global Glimpse students done to raise funds? If it worked for them it could work for you. Ask Global Glimpse for tips. Create a Tumblr or blog to track your progress and to bring alive what you're about to do. You can use it to fundraise, and to report back (and thank) donors. You can then of course use all your social media connections to help spread the word. Good luck!"
