Airfare
Monthly cultural excursions are an optional addition to your program experience. Each monthly cultural excursion costs $250 per person. Weekly activities are included in your program cost.
Volunteers are responsible for coordinating and paying for all airfare expenses. Upon acceptance to the program, we will share flight instructions. Do not purchase airfare until you have been officially accepted and instructed to purchase airfare.
If you’re not available to serve for an entire week, you will still need to pay for a full week’s worth of service.
Please review our refund policy before applying.
If your family would like to serve longer than four weeks, contact us at info@orphanagesupport.org for pricing details.
