Fundraisers for Mission Trips

Embarking on a mission trip is a life-changing journey of faith, service, and community impact. Whether your youth ministry is preparing for a regional service project or your adult congregation is planning an international mission, the cost of travel, lodging, and supplies can add up quickly. At R&K Subs, we provide a reliable, high-profit fundraising program designed to help your team raise the necessary capital quickly, allowing you to focus your energy on your mission work rather than the money.

By offering our freshly made subs and sandwich options to your community, your group can easily fund its travel expenses through a simple, community-supported campaign.

Empowering Volunteers and Youth Travelers

Preparing for a mission trip is an excellent opportunity for personal growth and teamwork. When youth groups and adult volunteers take an active role in fundraising, they build vital skills in goal setting, organization, and community outreach.

Our fundraising campaigns are structured to be highly accessible and educational for participants of all ages. By connecting with neighbors, family, and church members, your travelers gain confidence and a sense of shared ownership over the upcoming mission trip.

Supporting Church Ministries and Outreach Goals

For congregations and faith-based organizations, mission trips are a vital extension of your church's local and global outreach. We understand that organizing travel logistics is already a massive undertaking for church leaders and coordinators. That’s why we have designed our fundraising process to be as straightforward as possible, integrating seamlessly with your existing church calendar.

Whether you’re looking for a standalone campaign to fund a specific summer youth trip or want to integrate sub sales into your broader year-round church fundraisers, we are here to support your goals.

Frequently Asked Questions for Mission Trip Fundraisers

How early should our mission team start the fundraising process?

We recommend contacting our office to schedule your fundraiser at least 2 to 3 weeks before your planned distribution date. This timeline gives your participants plenty of time to collect orders from the congregation and secures your preferred delivery date on our schedule.

Can we customize the fundraiser for specific individual travel goals?

Yes. Because we pre-sort and label all orders by the individual seller, it is incredibly easy for your coordinator to track exactly how much money each traveler has raised toward their individual trip costs.

Are there options available for supporters with different tastes?

Absolutely. To help your team appeal to a broader audience, we offer both our classic, high-quality submarine sandwiches and our very popular pretzel sandwiches. Providing these options helps increase overall participation and boosts your final fundraising total.

Do you deliver to our church, or do we need to pick up the orders?

We deliver directly to your specified location in Central PA using our fleet of refrigerated trucks. Delivery minimums do apply and are based on your distance from our Palmyra facility. Please contact us to confirm the delivery details for your specific area.

How do we get the order forms for our travelers?

We provide all of your individual seller sheets and master order forms completely free of charge. Once your date is booked, we will supply you with everything your team needs to begin taking orders.
