Motobecane Fantom Cross Uno conversion to geared

Good morning,

Please excuse my first post being a "please hand feed me" type post. I have a 56 cm 2010 Motobecane Fantom Cross Uno, single speed bike. My brother is starting medical school in NY soon here and I want to give this bike to him, but need gears. I have gone to 2 local bike shop's and they are quoting anywhere from 200-800 for parts alone. I want a cheap, simple conversion and can do the work myself- but need guidance on parts. Can you please assist me with a low priced parts list to convert this bike to a geared bike? It would be so much appreciated. I am reading the forums now to try to figure it out myself, but the sooner the better. Thanks in advance:
