A bitter disappointment

August 10, 2022by: Nicole Schickentanz - GermanyProgram: Best Volunteer Programs in Australia

Unfortunately, a bitter disappointment. It's called a social organisation, you want to help and think you're doing something good. As long as you pay well, everything is fine. But if you can't take part in the programme because of health problems, you suddenly have to pay a double deposit as a cancellation fee. No one explains where the costs come from, the general terms and conditions are simply referred to, which one has never seen before. Without a doubt a bitter disappointment and unfortunately not a social thought, but a money-making scheme, in the foreground. Attention!
