Dear John,
To say I am overwhelmed is an understatement! Thank you and the trustees of the IPA Foundation for your generous assistance to Zimkids. Over the last year, we have nearly tripled the number of orphans we serve at the same moment that the price of food has skyrocketed. The dolls the children make pay for the basic food package they all receive, but we have been struggling to meet growing medical expenses. Your donation will allow us to ensure that the kids with HIV and those with tuberculosis get consistent treatment, as well as to meet the raft of other diseases all of the children contract. We will also use the funds you have provided to improve the variety and nutritional content of the food we presently distribute which has been woefully short on protein.
Over the course of the coming months we will be happy to provide you with an accounting of how and for what we use the funds.
I told Tinashe Basa, Prosper Modhi and Sipho Nyoni, our trustees in Zimbabwe, about this wonderful gift. They asked me to pass along their deepest thanks, both to you and to Adrian, who has been such a stalwart friend to all of us.
Sincerely
Dennis Gaboury
Founder, Trustee Zimkids Orphan Trust
Carpe Diem.
