Hi Marlen and David,

Now that we have identified quite a couple of organisations to contact, I think it would be good to write a letter of intent about what Kiserian is and does and what they need in order to be able to contact different organisations and not to have to write the same at each time. The letter could be posted as shared document and neighbours could use it at each moment they are contacting an organisation and just have to adapt it slightly.
I am quite busy at the moment, but maybe we could find somebody to write it.

best wishes,
Maria

Bramuel submitted the attached draft version of the letter of intent the hospital hopes to submit to the Japanese Embassy in Kenya. I have not gone through it in detail, but I do believe that we need to include the financial information from the budget for the construction.

Hi everyone-I hope you are all having a good weekend. Bramuel and I spoke this morning, so I wanted to update regarding a few things:

Bramuel's computer at the hospital has apparently been infected by a virus. He has taken it to be repaired and his data is backed up, but he was told they may not be able to fix it. He should know more about that tomorrow. Hopefully they will be able to remove the virus and get it up and running again very soon. He had to go to the Internet Cafe to speak with me this morning.

Happy Monday everyone! I just wanted to provide a quick update. Bramuel met with the official today from the Japanese Embassy. He was able to give a tour of the hospital and discuss everything that they've accomplished to date, as well as where they would like to be in the future. The official told Bramuel that they had visited a lot of different projects around Nairobi, but his was one of the most organized. They also extended an invitation to submit a letter of intent regarding the building project. If this goes well, they may request a full blown proposal later on, but so far so good!
