Volunteer Costs
GFR strives to relieve the financial burden of volunteering on our volunteers. While each trip cost will vary by country, GFR continually works with individual and corporate donors to raise money that pays for all of the medical supplies, medications and construction supplies needed when on the ground.
The trip cost that GFR collects from our volunteers covers their room, board, on-ground transportation and translators that assist our volunteers during clinics.
Volunteers are responsible for paying for their own:
Travel flights in and out of country
Visa costs required by country
Medical Evacuation Insurance, required for all team members
Trip Insurance (optional)
Individual supplies donated by the volunteer
Vaccinations and antimalarial medications
Medical Liability Insurance, required for Providers
