Parental Consent Form 2018

Dear Parent or Guardian,

Your student is applying to participate in REACH 2020. REACH is a ministry of Chi Alpha Campus Ministries in GA (the collaboration of all Chi Alpha groups in Georgia). Students who are accepted on the REACH team and who raise their entire trip budget will be going to Colombia to work with RED Universitarias student ministries in March 2020. We encourage you to talk with your student about their interest in this mission opportunity. You may also find more information about Georgia Chi Alpha and REACH at GaChiAlpha.com.

The cost for your student to participate in REACH is $1600. These funds cover all travel expenses, food, lodging, and ministry expenses for the REACH experience. We have a successful fundraising process in place for your student to follow. If your student works diligently through this process, we believe he/she will reach their fundraising goal.

Your student will need your help to gather the names and addresses of 100 people who will be sent a fundraising appeal letter. Your student needs your consent to apply for REACH. Please read the following statements, and check each box to indicate your agreement. Then sign below.

I understand that my student is applying to go on a mission trip to Colombia in the spring of 2020 with Chi Alpha Campus Ministries in GA.I understand what the cost is for my student to go on this trip. I understand that my student is required to send 100 letters asking for financial support in order to go on this trip. I will partner with them in building a list of 100 names and addresses.I understand that due to limited accessibility at some locations in Colombia, my child may not be able to contact me via internet or cell phone on a daily basis. I understand that there will be a team Facebook Group that will be updated as often as possible and also that there will be an emergency contact number at which I could contact a REACH team leader at any time if necessary.My son/daughter has my approval to apply for this trip, and if selected, to travel to this outreach location in 2020.
