All RLP volunteers are expected to take part in fundrasing.

We encourage others to join us in our work. We ask that no

volunteer pay their own way, but they work to fulfill the social model

of being sent on behalf of a group. This is their challenge.


*Fundraising is designed to cover the entire cost of your trip, this includes the purchase of supplies and books for schools and libraries.

*If a volunteer is unable to make the trip, all monies raised will be put towards books and supplies.

*To donate in support of  RLP, please click PayPal button at bottom of page.
