Volunteer Programme Fee

Volunteering costs are broken down into two parts: application costs & programme costs. FACE Nepal operates on a minimal overhead with all of its international members and most of its local members supporting the organisation in a voluntary capacity. As a result the majority of your fees go directly to the community.

If you have any questions or concerns about the fees outlined, we are happy to provide you an in-depth breakdown of the distribution of your funds.

Application Costs

Volunteer Application Fees US$25 (Non- refundable) This fee covers the immediate design and coordination of your requested volunteer program and is payable upon your confirmation of attendance.

Team Project Application Fees US$100 (Non-refundable) This fee covers the cost of the program design, project cost analysis and other organisational planning and is payable upon your request for a detailed project proposal.

Programme Costs

The following fees are payable upon the commencement of your training in Nepal and are based around the duration of your stay. They are typically given in cash and you will be issued a receipt. If you would feel more comfortable transferring money in advance, we can arrange this- please email us
