The request:
Good morning Mr. Jean Gagnon,
My name is Brother Gabriel Lauzon, a missionary for 44 years in Rwanda.
I had the privilege of meeting you twice, first when you came to La Prairie in the middle of August and when I accompanied Brother Jean-Marie Amisia from Congo to your residence on the Avenue du Parc. I would like to thank you for the glasses that you gave us graciously (http://www.fondationcoupdecoeur.org/en/projects/project-1711-rwanda) and which will be distributed when I will arrive in Rwanda at the end of October to those who are in need to wear them and who have no means to buy them.
About a week ago, I received a request for a water project from Rwanda for the new kindergarten, primary and later secondary school located in Mbugangali (Gisenyi). The rwandan brother Alexis Hagenimana asks me if I can find sponsors to support a water project for the school for which he is responsible and for the surrounding area deprived of water almost entirely. Since you gave me your NGO's card: "Fondation Coup de Coeur" when I went to your house, I thought it was an invitation to contact you if there is a need for drinking water specifically for a school and a given population.
I come here to ask you Mr. Gagnon if I can send you this project. All explanations are given.
Thank you in advance for the interest you will take in receiving this project and see if it is possible to fund it in whole or in part. The total cost of the project is $ 20,000. 00.
