Information Volunteering Abroad?
Hey there! Well you wont find any programs for $700 because remember for one month, that has to incorporate your housing, food, the salary of the people who are looking after you as well as coordinating your entire volunteer experience. I interned abroad with Leave UR Mark and it's around $1400 for one month and then $800 for each additional month. I thought it was very affordable because I saw companies that charge in British pounds and are closer to the 2,000 mark. Plus it ends up being worth it because you get to live in a house with other interns and volunteers and you create a really good bond with them as well as the children that you teach. Not trying to be selfish but it was also really good for the resume...I'm from New York and NYU is highly competitive. Doing an internship abroad definitely makes you stand out. If you want to use the program that I did, you can go ahead and contact them. They are located in New York so if you are in the area you can go ahead and meet up with them: a href="http://www.leaveurmark.com" rel="nofollow"http://www.leaveurmark.com/a
