Trip Applications
International trips average about $1100 per person, but we are currently fundraising to help decrease this cost to make the trips more affordable for all, hopefully in the $200-$400 range. Final trip costs are yet to be determined, but will depend on the total amount fundraised. If fundraising covers more than this deposit, a refund will be issued. Once again, the more involved our chapter is and you are in our fundraising activities, the more impact these activities will have on the final cost.
As always, we want to emphasize the importance of involvement in EWB before, during, and after the trip. There are a lot of details still to plan with respect to these projects. There are several EWB-USA presentations to prepare and final reports that will be compiled by trip participants post-implementaion. The commitment that goes along with these projects and EWB-Marquette in general must be something all trip participants are willing to continue uphold.
