Insurance

International Health insurance. Neither Esperanza International nor Fundación Esperanza de Mexico nor the Esperanza Medical Center carry any kind of medical insurance for volunteer groups.  We require all volunteers to have international health insurance during the duration of their trip. Specifically, we ask that participants have insurance that covers emergency evacuation, emergency medical care, and encourage inclusion of COVID-19 repatriation coverage. We require group leaders to send Esperanza’s Program Coordinator a certificate of insurance at least one week before the trip start date.
