The Volunteer cost shall be US$ 1000 per person per month In order to provide facilities for volunteers we have to cover ongoing expenses principally those related to accommodation – rent, house maintenance, electricity and water bills, home help (for cleaning and laundry –not personal) and security. Other costs include official transportation, maintenance costs associated with equipment such bolt cutters and walkie talkie radios for the desnaring teams. Africa Network for Animal Welfare is limited in its community based animal welfare activities by available funding so an increase in staff or volunteer numbers means an increase in project running expenses, such as transportation, administration, materials and communications. To enable you stay and work with us we need these costs to be covered by volunteers, we estimate these costs to total between approximately US$700-850 per person per month. The excess we ask as a contribution from volunteers to project programme running.

Volunteers will be expected to pay a non-refundable one month’s fee prior to arrival to confirm their placement. Upon arrival, the remainder of the fees will be required. These payments do not include any flights, transportation, (except to and from the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport ), insurance, or food costs. Lonely Planet Guide to Kenya and the Kenya on a Shoestring, publications and web sites offer good information on these expenses.
