What costs are covered by The Pangaea Project and what must be covered by participants and their families?
Because The Pangaea Project emerged from the belief that all people, regardless of socio-economic status, should have the opportunity to learn about the world and have access to programs that allow them to contribute to it, the organization pays for 90% of the essential costs. In order to inspire a commitment toward their expenses, Pangaea requires that students raise $500 of the fee. This will ensure a sense of ownership and accountability for their experience. Pangaea staff assists participants in organizing a fundraising event during the Phase 1 of the program training. Back to top Do students have to know a foreign language?
