STEP TWO
COMPLETE AND SUBMIT ADDITIONAL FORMS
In addition to the basic information requested on the online registration form, the registration process will also ask each participant to complete an expedition waiver, a medical information sheet, a travel itinerary, and proof of at least $25,000 of medical evacuation insurance. Please feel free to use the password you establish at registration to come back to these forms and complete the information as it becomes available. For any minors traveling alone or with only one parent, we also recommend carrying a signed and notarized “Authorization for Minors to Travel” form with you when you travel. For everyone, we recommend carrying with you a hardcopy or digital copy of your passport in the event yours is lost or stolen.
All forms must be submitted no later than 60 days prior to departure.
STEP THREE
AWAIT FURTHER COMMUNICATION
Depending on how early you register and receive your registration confirmation, it may be several weeks/months before you receive more information. As registration winds down, you will begin to receive a wealth of information and instructions.
Each participant will also receive a manual and travel packet full of invaluable information covering all aspects of the expedition and instructions for participating in an orientation conference call.
STEP FOUR
MAKE PAYMENT IN FULL
Final payment can be made by credit card through your online registration form or by mailing a check made out to Family Humanitarian to PO Box 1521, Rowlett, TX 75030.

STEP FIVE
Become a Family Ambassador
Here at Family Humanitarian, we aren’t about dropping in to help for a few days and then going back to our regular lives. Our expeditioners are life-long ambassadors for the causes they start to impact through their first expedition. Not only will you get an amazing opportunity to participate in meaningful solutions in a very hands-on way while you’re on the expedition, you’ll be able to continue your connections with the community you serve into the future.
