Dear Jean, 

When I went to make a presentation to your Rotary Club last August, we briefly discussed a health project at the Red Cross Children's Hospital in Cape Town, South Africa. This involves the installation of 10 closed infant incubators and a giraffe incubator that will be connected to computer monitors through a new integrated computerized system.
The project, with a total cost of $ 337,000, will provide care for thousands of children annually.
You mentioned that your Club could pledge $ 1,050 CAN.
I am writing to ask if your Club is still willing to contribute funds and become an international partner in this very worthwhile project.  I have attached a copy of the draft GG (work in progress) that will give both you and your Club much more information about this project.  Could I ask you to please share this with your International Committee to see whether your Club will become a partner in this project. 

Please call me if you have any questions.  Thanks Jean!...
