I had trouble getting the link to work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think you were highlighting the WSPA (World Society for the Protection of Animals) which does not specifically run a program like Amber is involved in. WSPA provides links to the organizations that coordinate the volunteer time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes, some are free but most have fees in line with the $1795 that CCS requires. When the program is free then all travel and accomodations are on the volunteer to organize and secure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CCS offers the option to ask for donations from friends and family to help the volunteer defray the cost. I assume that someone planning their own volunteer trip could do the same.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WSPA is a great organization and the links they provide for volunteer opportunties are extensive. Thanks for letting me know about it. Here is the link:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.wspa-usa.org/pages/2634_volunteer_abroad.cfm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for commenting,&lt;br /&gt;Lisa</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7182988312165929572/4416118422288006389/comments/default/706022459724840978'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7182988312165929572/4416118422288006389/comments/default/706022459724840978'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://compassionate-news.blogspot.com/2009/06/when-its-time-to-follow-dream-short.html?showComment=1246460824313#c706022459724840978' title=''/><author><name>Lisa McGlaun</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05586141320197189197</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='02834205644634170205'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://compassionate-news.blogspot.com/2009/06/when-its-time-to-follow-dream-short.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7182988312165929572.post-4416118422288006389' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7182988312165929572/posts/default/4416118422288006389' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7182988312165929572.post-3559081205334054099</id><published>2009-07-01T06:12:16.982-07:00</published><updated>2009-07-01T06:12:16.982-07:00</updated><title type='text'>http://www.wspa-usa.org/pages/2630_compassionate_t...</title><content type='html'>http://www.wspa-usa.org/pages/2630_compassionate_travel.cfm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She can volunteer for free and help animals at the same time!
