Default Trip to Africa Advice

So, recently I've been planning to go on a volunteer trip to Africa, Ghana to be precise. After searching the web for a good organization that is legit I've found Projects Abroad and it sounds pretty good from what I can find on the web.

So a few questions, anyone go on a volunteer trip to Africa, with Projects
Abroad or with another organization, any good or bad stories to tell.

About the cost, according to the website it would cost $ 3,895 for 3 months (which is how long I'm looking at going for) the cost includes food, accomodation, and comprehensive travel and medical insurance. The travel costs would be extra above that. It says you can do fundraising for the trip, I would like to but any advice on how to go about that would be a great help.

Also, any general advice on travelling in Africa in general would be a great help, I plan on going next year sometime, but I'm not sure exactly when.

Thanks.
