I’m wondering if anyone has experience with their son’s attending any of the goodwill series events in Australia.  What is the cost involved in such a trip, what did your son like about the experience etc etc.  I know there are a few older threads on the subject, but I didn’t see anything recent.  Thank you

2 of my sons went, one in 2016 and one last year.  Simply, it was the best experience of their lives.  The folks running the Goodwill Series take great care of the kids.  I can't say enough about Bob and Rob Williams.  It cost around $4,000 to go, I believe.  Maybe a little more with the flight.  However, its a tax deductible organization and we raised a lot of money.  It cost a total of $1,100 total for both kids ($600 for 1 and $500 for the other).  Our community really stood behind the kids and thought it was a great opportunity.  If your gonna do it, definitely fundraise for it.  Both kids really thought it was a life changing experience.  I highly recommend it, but I would definitely fundraise for it.  This was also good because I made the kids take the lead in finding fundraisers and organizing the fundraiser, which was also a learning experience for them.  Feel free to PM me if you want further info.
