Participants will save money by living with a local Ghanaian family. Your host family will provide you not only with a nice home and meals, but also an invaluable insight into the African culture and the Golden Jubilee Celebration..

You will be given at least three meals a day (local food like rice, banku, yam or kenkey with stew or soup plus fruits. Western fare like pasta and sauce, chicken fried rice, etc., are also provided on request depending sometimes on where you're placed). Most host families also arrange for recreational activities and cultural events planned for the Anniversary celebration.

You will be assigned your own bedroom with a locker. The rooms in many instances are single rooms. There are always other people in the house as well; and they would be willing to provide you all the necessary assistance your require. In your room will be a bed with a mattress and in most cases a table and chair. All host families will have a shower and flush toilet.
