Jamaica Week 5 Volunteers:
The dates approved by Sandals are Monday Oct 24 to Wed. Nov 2. We recognize that these unusual dates may present a challenge for some volunteers. That is why we want to hear from you in your application or in a separate email to papajoe@greatshapeinc.org. Tell us either:
- These dates work for me!
- These dates don’t work for me, but I would attend from Fri Oct 21 or Sat Oct 22 to Sun Oct 30 AND I’d be willing to pay $150 a night per person to stay at an alternate hotel such as RIU for these 2-3 nights.
- Other feedback.
Project Fee
Jamaica, Grenada & Turks & Caicos: $900 USD + your airfare
Returning volunteers who apply AND pay during Pre-Registration pay $875 USD
*The government of Jamaica has mandated professional registration fees for all dentists and hygienists. These fees will be added to dentist and hygienist 1000 Smiles project fees.
Dentists: $900 project fee + $100 MOH fee = $1000 USD
Hygienists: $900 project fee + $40 MOH fees = $940 USD
If you are a returning dentist or hygienist you will still receive a $25 discount during Pre-Registration.
The world’s largest, international, humanitarian dental project.
It’s just such a wonderful experience. The music, the food, the people, everyone’s heart just opening to welcome us and us to them as well. It’s just a wonderful exchange and I recommend it to anyone.
