Review for A Broader View Volunteers, Elkins Park, PA, USA
Very deceiving. You pay $150 to get a "background check". You then pay off your $900 program and all of a sudden the program information changes. We were told we'd be in an orphanage with babies, which was great since we don't speak Spanish. After I paid the last bit of my fee, which was right before we left, I got a new summary stating I'd be in a school (that doesn't NEED us there- its just a typical neighborhood school) and then in the afternoons we'd be in a special needs orphanage for older children and adults. It was all messed up and NOT AT ALL what we expected. I will never go with them again.
We think this review is -fake- or not completely accurate, we ask for a US$120 deposit (already included in the total) we don't ask for payment for a background check of US$150 as you can get this at a police station (so completely false), and our programs don't cost $900 (another wrong information), so all these 3 wrong information triggers that this may be a fake review. We hope GNP will solve this as we do our best to solve any issue while in country. We also expect volunteers to read all our paperwork, adapt to new situations and go with the flow. For future volunteers read all our reviews and call us or chat online if you have any questions, we take very serious our reviews and complains, but they need to be real.
