Yikes. You are asking a lot. Everyone wants a lot of money right now. Its not impossible, but its VERY difficult.
You could try fund raising. How much help would your parents or family be? Sounds like a once in a lifetime thing. Maybe they'd be okay with sparing the cash if they knew how much it meant to you.
I'd say get a loan, but no bank will approve you without a job, and being at LEAST 16.
Just don't try anything you would see on a TV infomercial, an E-Mail (or internet), or anything like that. They don't work.
And as far as asking a business, provide them with plenty of information backing up where its going to go. Provide documents showing where the money will go, maybe some tax deductible forms, etc. Really, not to bash, but at your age I'd get my parents involved. The government doesn't let kids do anything without parental consent.

A friend of mine got a lot of money from sponsors when she went on a mission trip. These were people she knew from church though, not businesses, but it could probably still work like this. She just sent people personalized letters with an outline of exactly what she was doing, why she needed money and what the money would go to. She told them how it would benefit the place she was going, as well as her life and her community at home.
And if they do send you money, remember thank you notes, and send them letters while you're on your trip.

Well the best way to get all of that money is rob a bank. This never fails. It is so simple! You cannot lose! Another great way is to sit around all day doing nothing. Dont jump to any conclusions. This may not seem like a great idea but i do it all the time and it works for me. Good luck!

Smart girl. Write to Microsoft boss. The riches man on earth.
Or ask 1 cent from the population of China.You can have enough. Or ask a bank for interest free loan saying you will pay back $30 a month for 20 years from yr pocket money. Good luck.

It's a scam. Google "people to people" and the word scam.
If you're really interested in travel and education, check with your local Rotary Exchange program http://www.rotary.org/programs/youth_ex/index.html
You'll have to wait a few years, but it's definitely worth it.
Your family might think about hosting a student next year, this will give them a better idea of how the program works, plus you'll get involved with a different culture even sooner!

The best way is to sell drugs, but it is illegal and very risky. Don't do it.
Seriously, I wish I knew. There is no miracle AND legal ways.
The best way for the moment, though, would be to borrow it. Ask your parents and relatives. If they have it, if they're generous, if they trust you and if you're convincing enough, you might have it.
But remember. Once you got it and went on your trip, you need to get a job, save money, and pay them back.

Ask your parents. Also ask the people to people for a scholarship, they often look for diversity and will offer you money in order to get it. Lots of places have small organizations will give you small sums, but it is very hard to gain money quickly, that is why not everyone has a lot.

I HATE to tell you what you have to do at 13 to make a LOT of money. Suffice it to say it is illegal, UGLY and will screw your head up for the rest of your life. Even if you HAD seed money to invest in high risk stock it would take longer than you have to parlay it into what you need. At 13 if you haven't got a parent or adult to stake you...it AIN'T gonna happen.

1. Not likely to happen
2. Not the right catagory
3. Not likely to happen
4. Why would you think businesses would give you money, whether you ask nicely or not? They're businesses. Not exactly known for being benefactors.
5. Not likely to happen.

Do a donation car wash. It sounds lame I know but me and my friend did one to make her money quickly so that she could got to europe. You say donation, and hwne they ask what it is for you tell them . we made 1000 dollars in one day becuase people wanted to support her in ehr learning expierience. I coud give you a better anwer but I have no idea what state ur from, and a car wash would be pretty rediculus if u lived in a really rural place.
When you go to a buisness just ask to talk to the person incharge and tell that person what you are trying to acheive and then ask them if they would be willing to support you, or even if they can support you.
