Iquitos, Year (and Group) #2

Hola amigos!

First of all, thank you so much to everyone who has so generously donated to our cause!

Namely, thank you to:

Kimberly Faldetta
Haris Hussein
Deborah Reighard
Dane Reighard
Paul Hsu
Judith Plank
Claude Willis
Chloe Wang
Kathleen Suits

We still have 9 days of campaigning and a long way to go. If you can, please help us by going to: http://www.indiegogo.com/RiversideRelief?a=524846 and donating what you can. Or, please send this message on to your family and friends in case they would like to donate.

On May 26th, Derek, Sara, Jenny, and I will head to Iquitos for four weeks of working with the impoverished community of Belen. We'll be conducting household surveys, establishing new partnerships, performing "charlas" (health fairs), and testing samples to determine water quality and parasite prevalence.

Currently we are coordinating our resources and doing our pre-trip homework, but we'll soon be ready for our Amazonian adventure! Please stay tuned!

~Hannah :)
