Dear Sir Dr. Thomas Stern and Yolanda Ortega Stern:

Greetings of Peace.

We are so thankful for the 20 units of wheelchair that you have spared for us throught the efforts of Royal Kalam. We highly appreciate your donations.

I am DR TOEFREDO T ESGUERRA, Acting Commander of the Coast Guard Medical Service and Expedition Physician of the Philippine Mt. Everest Expedition Team. I am so much indulged into humanitarian activities wherein I facilitated extension programs particularly to the South of Philippines. I do believe that the ONLY way to supress terrorism is through addressing poverty and health rights of the marginalized communities which become the usual haven for terrorists.

Your help will go a long way to further bridge gaps and settle disputes. Because i believe that even if we wage war aftEr another, there will always be the poor who will suffer more in the middle of 'greed.'

I'm still standing now performing high-end rescue operations around the country, doing humanitarian missions here and abroad, and teaching disaster intervention programs to target communities nationwide. If ever you have more connections to extended sponsors and donors, please do consider us in your list. We need life saving and disaster equipment since we are a country prone to have series of disasters.

I will be providing you pictures of the patients whom we will give your wheelchairs. Rest assured, ALL of them will go to the right hands. Modesty aside and with God's forgiveness, me and my team are the few guys who love to walk in the 'straight and narrow' path... like you, and your cause.

May God Bless you all the more and if we miss to recognize you, may He just bank it in the highest heavens so that in the days of reckoning God will be more gracious over you because of your good deeds.

Salvare Servimus!
