TERMS OF USE
VIGS-GHANA Volunteering (VGV) Terms of Use. Submitting an application on this site implies that you have read and agree to these Terms and Conditions.
PLACEMENTS
Whilst every effort is made to place volunteers in the specific institutions mentioned in their Invitation / Placement Letters, it sometimes becomes necessary to change the assigned host institution and or host-family due to unforeseen circumstances before volunteer arrives, such as:
- The designated host / host-family may become unavailable due to a need to make an impromptu journey or similar
- Hitherto acceptable standards set and met by host institutions / families may have deteriorated - in which case the originally assigned placement may have to be changed for the volunteers' own welfare
A volunteer would be transferred to a similar placement if for reasons beyond VGV's control the original placement is not able to take on the assigned volunteer.
TRAVEL INSURANCE
Volunteers are expected to take their own adequate travel insurance
MEDICAL COSTS
Medical costs are not covered by the program fee volunteer pays, however, VGV would be willing to advance monies to volunteers who may need emergency medical attention but don't have readily available funds to pay for such services.
COMMITMENT DEPOSIT
The commitment deposit of US$70 is non-refundable. Paying this fee means that a place has been reserved for you against all other applications for the same position. If you cancel, this fee will be applied as a Cancellation charge.
