From the VFI website: "The standard
work commitment we encourage is 3 weeks. Volunteers must begin a work
program on Sunday or Monday during the year (program ends on Thursday) ,
except for the holiday black-out dates.
In my case, since it was a long flight from the USA, I wanted to stay a
month. So I stayed 3 weeks at one base, and 2 weeks at another.
At my
first base, we had several volunteers that were staying for only 2
weeks. You can't believe how quickly their time to leave came, and they
were all very sad that there time was up. The next time I volunteer for
Sar El, I plan on staying 6 weeks that way, I will stay the full time at
a couple of bases.
I understood that my being allowed to stay the for my
second base assignment, was dependant on me being a positive and
productive on the first base, one that did not cause any problems. It
only makes sense, why would Sar El want to host someone that was causing
problems. |
