Terms and Conditions

Please read the following Terms and Conditions carefully before submitting your security deposit. By clicking ‘I have read and accept the Terms and Conditions’ on the checkout page, you agree to the following terms and conditions:

Flights & Visas

Airport transfers are included in the Program Fee and arranged by GVE on your scheduled arrival and departure dates. Transfers may be arranged on other days of the week but may incur a small fee.

All volunteers are responsible for ensuring that their passport is up to date and valid for travel. Please see the Travelers Portal for additional information about flight, visa and travel regulations for your destination.

Insurance

GVE recommends that all volunteers secure medical and travel insurance for the duration of their session. If you have a domestic insurance policy, you must ensure that it includes overseas coverage.

Cancellation & Refund Policy

A security deposit is required to hold your spot in the session you have applied for. This deposit is refundable until 60 days before your scheduled arrival date (transaction fee “tax” is non-refundable) and is part of the total Program Fee. After 60 days before your arrival date, your program fee is not eligible for a refund.

Your remaining balance is due 60 days before your scheduled arrival date. If the full Program Fee is not received 60 days before your arrival date, you may be considered for cancellation (unless prior arrangements have been made with GVE).

Every reasonable effort will be made to operate the program as planned; however, should unforeseen events and conditions require our itinerary to be altered or canceled, GVE reserves the right to do so for the safety and best interest of our volunteers. If such issues arise and GVE is forced to cancel one or more weeks, a full refund will be issued.
