Expectations for all participants
Attend all team meetings before, during and after the trip.
Pay all deposits and fees by the scheduled due date; otherwise, you forfeit your place on the team.
Have a current passport, Ghanaian visa, and all necessary immunizations.
Because the arrangements for travel to, from, and during the trip are intricate, everyone must travel together and no individual arrangements or alterations of dates will be made.
Sign all authorizations, releases and agreements offered by GHM and the sponsoring institution (if any).
Abide by all policies, practices, procedures, rules and regulations of GHM, team leaders, and the sponsoring institution (if any). Failure to do so could result in a participant being sent back to the U.S. before the end of the trip. The participant is solely responsible for all costs associated with early departure.
Any effort to provide gifts to children or adults in the community or to offer an invitation to visit the US, or to initiate an independent humanitarian program, whether made during or after the trip, must be coordinated through the team leader during the trip and through GHM after the trip.
