Will someone plan a trip to Chad in Africa to help?

Question

I have been watching for 3 years now this go on, and i can not just sit here and give money anymore, I am well aware of the risks and dangers but quite frankly i think some of us Americans need to grow a backbone, I am looking for someone to fly to Chad with and assist in the refugee camps or help in any possible way

Answer 1

If you are a Doctor or a Nurse you can apply to Medecins sans Frontieres - they are excellent and have years of experience.

If you try to be a Lone Ranger you will very likely be refused a Visa (a sobering fact in many of these places).

Answer 2

As already said, you may find it virtually impossible to obtain a Visa to any conflict zone. I was in Darfur in 2006, but had I not had a job for a subcontractor to the UN, I would have never gotten a Visa that would have allowed me to travel outside Khartoum.
