Karamba, Many thanks to you, Soffie and Alpha for a job well done. I also want to commend Ancha Bala Gaye and those who lent a hand for all their efforts on the ground in Gambia. I agree that we should continue to maintain this fund, and you can count on me for that. Again, thanks.

I would particularly encourage people to do all they can to maintain the effort as a permanent concern by agreeing on a regular due payment scheme. If concern and interest deflates in something as important as what has been started here, we would have failed miserably as our brothers and sisters keepers. We are off to a good start in that the essential modalities needed to be effective are already in place from absolute accountability of very cent of contributions to relationships to people and organisations who can help get all of the stated aims of the fund accomplished. With the infrastructure in place it is now up to us to get on with it. I have received contributions that came with very poignant notes about the need to keep up the good fight. People really care and want to make a difference. We just have to maintain the involvement and try to increase contributors.
