So yeah, the title says it all.  I was planning on attending Rutgers University, but was only given 5k.  I have 3 other members of my family going to college, and my dad is a minister, so the net income of the house (with my brothers working) is only about $50,000.  This makes taking out a massive loan pretty much impossible for my family to afford.  My dad being a minister and all, he has some friends that run a charity in Tanzania, and he suggested that I get some "life experience" while I can't attend college this year.  I figured it was the best option for me, so I'm going this September.  The only problem is, I have NO clue how to prepare-- and I haven't ever even been to a foreign country (besides Canada).
