You can help your child raise support a number of different ways: Pray. Your child needs your prayers and they need to know you are praying for them! Encourage. Raising support is scary. They are putting themselves in challenging situations every time they meet with a potential donor, and they are doing it for the sake of the Gospel on the college campus and beyond. Let them know that you support them and that you are proud of them. Think about your friends who may be interested in supporting your child, and talk about the internship favorably with them. Pass along names to your child, and “set the table” for them for when they go to ask for support. Support them yourself. It doesn’t have to be a lot, but interns are so encouraged by the financial support their parents give. A lot or a little, it really is the thought that counts. (The additional funds are really helpful, too!)
