Attn: Mr. & Mrs. George Houk

Dear George and Kathy,
This is to thank Desana and you for your generous forthcoming gift of the entire amount required to fund our Piura school during 2009.  Our cost for operating the Piura school includes property, furniture, school supplies, lunch for the children five days  per week, some healthcare, clothes and psychological support plus registrations fees and school uniforms for 40 to 60 children over the course of the year [half the children during the January-March summer term when we prepare and enroll children who previously were not destined for school: into first grade] and [half during the main school term - April through December - when we prepare older children who missed their chance at an education, and must be brought up to the level of education pertinent to their age, before we can register and sponsor them in national schools.]  Thank you so much!

The Piura school is today in its fourth month of operation and already has 21 children. In anticipation of your gift we have already named the school after "Desana" - come see:  http://piuraproject.com  Also, when Charo, our project co-coordinator was working with the school and staff last week, she managed to get individual photos of fourteen of the children.  (http://piuraproject.com/album.html)

We also want to invite you to share in the pleasure we receive from being able to do this work.

Yours Sincerely,
