Travel Funding<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Funding is available from multiple sources close to Young Farmers. See the list below to see funding available, also remember that clubs and districts can be asked for funding for trips.<\/p>\n

Due to the nature of group trips being leisure based rather than a personal development exchange, there will be fewer funding sources that you can apply to. The International Trust will donate to group trips; those in the West region can apply to Ellen Kerr and for all others, the main opportunity would be asking your club or District. There will be more funding sources available for the Agri and Rural Affairs group study tours.<\/p>\n
