Cost: $3500 for everything
Description:Operation Crossroads Africa sends people from all over the world to Africa every summer to work on various projects there (with local counterparts usually). The cost of the program is $3,500 for EVERYTHING for seven weeks. That may seem like a lot, but the organization has a variety of ways to help people fundraise. I raised $2,500 in just one month.
Field Notes: This is a really good program for those who want to go to Africa with an organized program but still have a lot of autonomy in the country. It is entirely doable to work on the job assigned and then also to some research in your spare time.
