Donate to the Travel Bursary Fund
What makes Preach truly special is the diversity of its attendees, ranging from undergraduates to full professors, and representing scholars from around the globe. Not everyone who has great research to share has the means to attend the conference. In 2018 we provided more than 20k in travel bursaries, in large part due to the generous support of donors. If you are able, please consider making a small contribution to this fund.
To donate an amount not listed, use the quantity button to donate multiple quantities of a listed amount until you reach your desired amount. E.G., to donate $150, select 3 donations of $50, or to donate $200, select 2 donations of $100.
An Alternate Way to Support The Travel Fund!
In addition to making a cash donation, you can also help us to fund travel bursaries for International and student delegates through FlipGive, an online program that provides cash back on the daily purchases you’re already making! Just follow the link below to our FlipGive page where you can purchase gift cards or merchandise directly from popular online retailers. [This is a Canadian fundraising program, we are not sure if it will work for those outside of Canada, but it is worth clicking the button to find out!]

Venue
Join us at the state of the art Cubex Centrum Praha, one of Prague’s newest and most cutting edge conference venues. The interiors are designed to reflect Czech cubist architecture and provide flexible meeting spaces with high-tech 4k presentation systems. Most importantly for a group of international delegates, Cubex is easy to get to! It is located just 100m from a metro station and is situated between a hotel and a modern shopping centre.
For those attending the International Congress of Psychology, Cubex is only a 1.8km walk or one subway stop away, meaning that you can easily pick the same hotel for your entire stay in Prague. If you choose to stay in the historical centre of Prague (which we highly recommend), you’ll still easily make your way to Cubex using public transportation. If you haven’t travelled in Prague before, we’ll make sure that it’s easy for you by providing meeting points where you can find others attending the conference to navigate the city with! Finally, Cubex is LGBTQ friendly and happily agreed (and understood) our request to have at gender neutral restroom facilities. The venue is also air conditioned for our comfort in the hot month of July!

More than 79 different locations represented among the 115 delegates of #Preach2018! 6 of the 7 continents are represented. We must do better next time to represent the Gay Penguins from Antarctica! pic.twitter.com/CyEQC8kZek
