Date: August, 16 th 2010 Dear Jake: On behalf of myself, 4 th Wall Relief, and the Karen Department of Health and Welfare I wanted to pass along our sincerest thanks for your team’s efforts and for the amazing contributions of your donors to make this mission a great success and hopefully the first of many future missions. I also wanted to express that this trip was something unique in my experience working along the border. The level of expertise brought to bear by the TR team, and the level of bonding between the trainers and medics was just inspiring. Lifelong friendships were born and lifechanging moments were shared by all. In another 6 weeks this batch of medics will graduate from this current training program. Some will go on to advanced training and the rest will return their villages and communities in the refugee camps or into the conflict zones in eastern Burma. Either way these young men and women face an uncertain future. With no local doctors, limited equipment, training, and almost no international support these medics risk everything to bring aid to their people. Whatever training and experience we can bring to them, they will always teach us more about love, sacrifice, courage, and honor than we could ever know. May god bless them and keep them all safe. Keep up the great work, and I look forward to working again with Team Rubicon as soon as possible. Sincerely, Rob Swain Founder 4 th Wall Relief International
