In order to compete at the Jamboree we need to have a project. This is enough to cover the cost of a lot of our frequently used supplies like pipette tips that we use ALL the time when developing our projects.
Once we make it to Paris, we need a way to get around. This is what each of us can expect to pay for a weeklong pass to use the public transportation in Paris.
We need a place to stay while on our trip! The best option for us is to rent an Airbnb for the week and split the cost between everyone. Last year this was the housing cost for everyone.
Every team member must purchase a jamboree ticket for this amount to get into the venue. These tickets are one of the largest expenses for our members, and are a major barrier to attendance.
Realistically, the price of a plane ticket to Paris changes all the time; but many of our members paid close to this amount for their plane tickets last year. This is the most impactful thing that we can help pay for, as it makes up around HALF of the total cost of going to the jamboree.
This would be an incredible gift to one of our members, as this would fully fund their trip to the jamboree!
