Need FLASH help for a friend with a Canon EOS Rebel T2i

Good morning folks.  Pardon my being a Nikon person but you should know that I have a lot of friends in our camera club with Canon gear.  It's all good!!  This person is heading to Costa Rica for nature photography in a couple of weeks and I suggested she get a "Better Beamer".  She asked me to buy one for her.  I asked her the model of her external flash!  "I do not own an external flash.  Could you buy one for me?"   So, I have no clue on what she might need for this trip.  I know that she does not have a lot of money so here I am asking you kind folks for help.  Could you please make a recommendation on a unit that she perhaps can afford?  She is not a pro user just a camera club member going on a club trip and needs some help.  Time is running out if I am going to get this stuff to her soon.  Good news is that i have AMAZON PRIME with 2 day delivery so should be able to get it quickly.  Any suggestions?  Thanks for any help you all my offer.
