Dear Reader, On May 18, 2007 six members of the African Diaspora Medical Project (ADMProject), including 4 student research assistants, will travel to Yaounde, Cameroon for 10 days to assist an organization there - the Sainté Trinité Foundation - in their efforts to care for orphans affected by AIDS.

Travel Objectives  As you may know, the care of children in sub-Sahara Africa orphaned by the deaths of their parents from AIDS has presented a significant challenge to communities that do not have the resources to meet many of their specialized needs. The ADMProject will collaborate with them in their efforts to increase their capacity and ability to care for these displaced children. On this trip we hope to accomplish two broad objectives: 1.   Complete a site and needs assessment and begin the planning of the Project concept and design. 2.    Document and record conditions that will support our efforts to illuminate the problem affecting many communities in sub-Sahara Africa and generate a positive response from donors in the form of funding for the Project. In addition, we will donate school supplies and clothing, and we would like to make a cash contribution that will help meet the day-to-day needs of the children. How you can help The ADMProject is accepting donations of school supplies (small items - pens, pencils, markers, rulers, erasers, etc) and clothing (new or excellent condition used, ages 2 - 16 years, boy/girl). These can be dropped by our office at 2510 St. Paul Street, 1st Floor, Baltimore, MD 21218. Cash donations are also greatly needed and appreciated and can be mailed to the same address or may be donated on-line through our website, www.admproject.org. All contributions are tax-deductible.

I hope that you will consider supporting our effort. Help us help others help themselves. The ADMProject and the children of Yaounde thank you for considering them as beneficiaries of your charitable spirit.   Sincerely, Lenox S. Dingle, Jr., M.D. The African Diaspora Medical Project, Inc.
