And for how many years? They all have a kind of vehicle only top Ministers usually own! And why?? I have seen what (not!) the organization do, specially on the ultra quiet East Coast. My advice is: Do NOT give even ONE SINGLE Cent to them! If you wish to help: Simply buy a ticket, come, see, experience and give where you feel it's required. Support Communities - not all these wasteful ENJOY's! That way YOU can have a fully paid for adventure and also a lovely education holiday and the very poor actually will see the benefit. That way everyone will benefit - and help us to starve the money wasting NGO's out of their all-expenses paid existence.
