Yes you may need vaccinations and medication depending on the location of the Mission. Many countries require proof of vaccinations. We will inform you of these requirements as well as recommended vaccinations and medications for each specific Mission. You can get your vaccinations through a local travel clinic or your primary care physician.

For Missions where we travel by plane, Project Compassion provides worldwide insurance coverage for hospitalization, repatriation and medical expenses.

This is an individual decision. There are occasions that you may want to purchase a soda, lunch or  gifts on a free day during sightseeing or shopping.

Countries may have an exit fee. We ask that you set aside approximately $75 in the event you need to pay this fee. Exit fees are always in US dollars.

If this is your first Mission with Project Compassion there is a $50 nonrefundable application fee. When you commit to a Mission, there is a $300 deposit that is required.  This deposit is nonrefundable.
