Like I said, I am all about sharing whatever information I gather with you, so that if you should ever feel compelled to take a mission trip to Africa (or anywhere else), you will have an idea of what to expect.
The big obstacle on this trip is the cost. It is not cheap to travel from Indiana to Sudan! Here are some of the major costs associated with an African mission…
Trip with Aid Sudan: $4850
Plane tickets to Houston to meet up with the team: $283 (round trip)
Passport (express service for application deadlines): $135-already paid
Immunizations (yellow fever, typhoid fever, hep A, rabies): Not sure yet, but estimated at around $300+
Anti-malarial Medications: Not sure yet
In total, I will need to come up with at least $5500. If you have any fundraising ideas, or would like to contribute, please let me know!
