Fundacion AFOS is a non profit organization, non religious and non political, mainly funded by the fees paid by the program participants. Due to our non-profit orientation and Argentina's favorable currency exchange rate for foreigners, we can currently offer our programs at the very low fees in the table below:

We offer discounts to long-term volunteers with intermediate level of Spanish who are traveling independently and can arrange their own accommodation.
Health Insurance:
As a program requirement you need health coverage throughout your program. Your home country coverage is acceptable if it covers you abroad; if not we can arrange for health coverage for you here. This coverage includes medical and dental consultations, emergencies, hospitalization and surgeries. It does not include civil liability or life insurance. If you are a student intern we suggest you ask whether you are covered abroad by a family or university policy
Payment terms:
To reserve participation in the program and to ensure availability of project and lodging, one month's total fee must be paid in advance (or 100% if the program is shorter than 1 month). If the participant cannot travel for acceptable reasons beyond their control, 90% of the advance payment will be reimbursed.
