The Cost;
An Itemized Budget of Expenses
Based on best
available information as of Jan. 2008, we estimate out-of-pocket expenses
for D.Henderson to go to Africa and shoot this project to be approximately
$6,000.
At first this
figure may seem incredibly low, but it is based on sound figures. The cost
of lodging, food and travel within African countries is very low. The bulk
of the expense is in getting to and from Africa.
