I hope you are both well.  I’d like to introduce you by email to our friend and a fellow Rotarian, Jeff Mense.  Jeff is a member of the Chicora Rotary Club in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.  We have partnered with their club on a number of projects in the Iquitos region.  They are currently putting together a Global Grant for a community near Iquitos called 12 de Abril.   Here are some photos of the current situation in 12 de Abril:  https://flic.kr/s/aHsmgFtyWt.  There are several water sources, all contaminated, that don’t yield enough water to provide reliable service.  The school in the community has a sanitation project that is never used because of lack of water.  We plan to change this situation through the project and the proposal for this project is attached.  I hope you all and Jeff might discuss the opportunity to partner/collaborate together on this project through Fondation Coup de Coeur and RC of Montreal.  I leave it to you all to carry forward this conversation! I’m glad to be a part of any discussions you have if I can help answer questions or provide more insight on the project.

Many thanks,
