VFP projects are affordable; our registration fee is only $500 per project. There is an additional fee payable upon arrival for many projects in Africa. This fee is used to offset the cost of the camp and to ensure there are materials for the volunteers to work with. We work with partner organizations in each country to find projects that meet local needs. Volunteers will find a wide variety of service projects, most lasting 2-3 weeks. You will find more information about VFP and our projects by visiting the Volunteer Info section of our site.
