Finance

Hi Lori,

I will try to breakdown the costs for you, but it's actually pretty simple!

The Crew Fee rate for a 2-week Anaesthetist position is $700/month. So for two weeks, it would be $350. That covers your accomodation & food etc.


All volunteers are responsible for their own travel expenses (up to the airport of our host country, where you will be picked up by a Crew member), as well any extra insurance you will want. Mercy Ships covers all short-term Crew with evacuation/repatriation insurance, but Crew can purchase a top-up to that programme, which is individually specific (as in, I can't give you an estimate).


You will also probably want to have some spending money! Cameroon will be slightly more expensive than other countries we've been, so depending on how much you want to eat out & explore, I would budget it based on your local costs, cos it will probably be somewhere close to that.


They are all of the normal expenses that people can expect.


I hope that helps.
