The Organizers of the IOV World Youth Congress are urging everyone who has applied and been accepted to get their airline tickets now.  Airfares are expected to increase in the coming weeks.

The Travel Fund, which was set up to help youth who can’t afford the cost of tickets, is nearly empty, as more than 60 people have asked for financial assistance.  The organizers emphasize that everyone must try to find money for tickets on their own.

Those who will receive financial assistance will be notified within the coming days.  Since the money won’t be available until after youth arrive in China, everyone must pay for tickets in their home country.
