Passports are considered a personal expense (you can continue to use the passport after the specific event has ended) and cannot be bought using event funds. 

Visas for entering the country of the event are considered an event expense and can be reimbursed through the event fund. 

• Each participant will need a valid passport to apply for their own visa
• When applying for your visa it is preferred to not use a church or religious organization email account; ones like gmail or yahoo are better to use
• Usually tourism is the best answer to explain why you are traveling (especially for secure locations)
• We have been advised that it is not a good idea to have one person buy all of the visas (especially for more secure locations as it draws attention to the visas)

For non US citizens with visas attending programs that have a fundraising requirement and have international travel during the event the participant is responsible to make sure they can get back into the county if they leave.
