The Fee and Dates

RCDP Argentina Program starts every 2nd and 4th Mondays of each month.

Every year hundreds of volunteers arrive in Argentina to volunteer from UK and USA based organizations and end up paying up to $2500 to volunteer for 2 weeks. Unfortunately, only a small portion of that money actually goes to host projects. The local host projects (orphanages, school, and local NGOs) in Argentina are resource poor and underfunded and need external support to run their programs. In our program, you will pay your fee directly to the projects upon arrival in Argentina. When you join our Argentina volunteer program, we will make sure that all of your money goes to the projects. Part of your fees also helps us cover our expenses. The program fee is divided as registration fee ($279) and weekly fee (for room, coordination, and project donation).
