Why are the fundraising goals higher than the costs?
In order to create a sustainable program, we must make our money work for us. That means that a fund must be started that can earn a return on the money raised. This will allow future students to benefit. Additionally, such a fund will create financial stability for the students who are already sponsored by giving them a rainy day fund. Currently, PEI is looking to save for the upcoming year and looking for ways to invest the money so that a self-sustaining income stream will allow for growth of the project.
