To be honest, 2000 doesn't seem that much, as long as it is including your flights and accommodation.

If you are looking for 100% free, I don't think you will find anything, especially abroad.

My best friend spent a year teaching in Burkina Faso, I will ask her what organization she went through. She did have to pay to volunteer, but the organization gave her ideas about fundraising, and she paid for the trip in full that way.

Have you looked at the peace corps? My friends' mom did it when she was younger and LOVED it and ever since then has wanted to go back and do it again.

I guess I hadn't thought of the travel expenses, it's usually $1000 round trip to anywhere as far away as I'm looking. I forgot about the peace corps, I'll check that.
