**If you wish to purchase trip cancellation insurance, you will need to do so at the time of your first deposit. Tesoro Project recommends that trip participants consider purchasing an individual trip cancellation policy at the time of the initial deposit, which would cover the trip costs (plan dependent) should someone have to back out of the trip for an unexpected emergency. Many plans can be found online, but one plan that offers trip cancellation insurance for any reason can be found at www.sevencorners.com. It will be your responsibility to know what plan you are purchasing and understand how it works**
