Chapter Overhead: Do you plan to raise funds for the chapter?
This the money that you want to make off of the program for your chapter. This isn't money that the chapter is taking from it's bank account to run the program. In fact, it's how much extra you want to charge to make sure your chapter has funds saved. Consider adding even just $1 to every program fee to build a treasury over time.

Step 2 | Identify Expenses
14

Identify what you think your expenses will be for the program by building two scenarios. Think through how the cost of certain things will be affected by the number of teens you have (Ex. cost of 1 meal x # of participants).
16
17
Scenario 1: Safety Goal
The lowest number of teens you think will come, resulting in the least amount you would spend.
Least # of ParticipantsScenario 2: Reach Goal
The highest number of teens that could come to program, resulting in the most you would spend.

Step 4 | Determine How Much to Charge
47
48
Finally, you can look to determine how much the program will cost you per person. If you want to charge a registration fee, this is how you can come up with the number. If you don't want to charge a fee, then this will help you to understand how much money your chapter will spend.

Cost of Program = Total Expenses - Total Reveneue
