hey pete nice chatting a few things the 1000 from the schroeder foundation arrived yesterday! 1. scholarships in chac total about 20k this year. the club will cover 9-10k of that and prob a total of 15000 is 100 percent funded any help we can get in this area would be fantastic these are all secondary and university scholarships and we are at 60+ students involved in chac alone not to mention los alpes and malpaisillo and nuevo amanacer 2. we had a lot of success with the millie micro finance program (despite the fact that it took 6 months for me to get pictures) families received 2 female pigs and one male pig and the pay back was identical so we are now at 6 soon to be 9 families anyhow i think this makes a lot of sense and would love to involve more interested parties i will see everyone in feb at the meeting but will be in ny frequently before then and would love to meet regarding field of dreams and other projects. it might be cool to do a simultaneous film fest among the three groups lets discuss this idea take care mc
