Response from South African Students Travel Service (SASTS)
Hello CM
Thank you for taking time to review our organisation.
Unfortunately we identified a safety concern with the Surf program and decided to temporary suspend that program until our concerns were addressed, we apologies for this inconvenience, we always put safely of the volunteers first.
Volunteering is not a guaranteed out of the box good experience, great experiences are rewarded to those that take the time to make themselves valued at their placements, flexibility patience and understanding are values that contribute to a positive experience.
For your 6 week program we received $825.00 or $19.50 per day, this includes,airport collection, 1st night at a city hostel, an orientation, walking tour of Cape Town, Transport to your project, a 24 emergency number, accommodation and three meals a day,7 days a week, the largest portion of this money goes to the host parent.
Regards
The SASTS TEAM
