last call - may 1st

thank you so much to everyone who has contributed funds to the clinic project. because the end of my service is rapidlly approaching, we are issuing a ''last call'' on donations of may first. at that point i will take the funds raised and use them to build a smaller scale project that can be added onto in the future. it may not be the grand vision for a full scale clinic that i originally imagined, but rather a smaller health post. we hope that this will be a crucial first step in bringing better health care to the community, inspiring the members and government health officals to continue making additions and improvements in the future. again, thank you so much for your generosity.

Wow, can you believe your two years are almost over?! We are so proud of you and are excited that we were able to help contribute to the building of the clinic!! I couldnt imagine having to walk for miles while I was in labor with Frankie or Steph!!! Can't wait to see pictures and hear tons of stories when you finally get home.

Congratulations!!

Love,
The Pallantes
