Why do we need scholarships?For 80 years, the Urbana Student Missions Conference has mobilized an estimated 350,000 people to engage in God’s heart for the world. Urbana25 will continue the legacy of inviting people to hear about how God is moving around the world, to hear from Him through Scripture, and to discern how they are uniquely gifted to join in His mission. We want our students to wrestle with the question "what does Jesus want to do with my life?", and Urbana will be a great venue for that.
As a national conference being held in Phoenix, there is a higher cost of travel, lodging, and food needed for each student who wants to attend Urbana. However, we do not want finances to be the main reason why students can't attend Urbana.
Student Cost BreakdownConference fee: $260
Hotel: $225 Transportation: $350 Food: $150 Total: $985 per student On average, per student cost to attend Urbana can be as high as $1,000 depending on how they travel to Urbana.
How much do we need?To lower the barrier for students to attend, we are hoping to raise $25,000. That could help 20-25 students to attend Urbana from SLO!
