I understand that these are devices, which have been taken out o£ service, but are still functioning and would be effective for use in missions like ours. We have been sending surgical groups to Ecuador since 1991, and cuxrently provide care in two locations with two separate groups annually. Our group works in Quito and the surroundinq area, and each year, we treat between sixty and eighty patients su££ering £rom congenital deformities o£ the head and neck (predominantly cleft lip and palate, as well as microtia), conqenital and traumatic defornuties of the hand, and burn scar de£ormities, along with some other plastic surgical conditions. Because we are sometimes working in hospitals that are not well-equipped, it is especially help£ul for us to have reliable equipment of our own to use during the missions. With your donation, we would be better able to meet the needs of our patients at our host hospital, so we are truly grate£ul for your consideration of our request. If you have any questions regarding our trip, please £eel free to contact me. Thank you agein for your assistance. Sincerely yours, �... Richard T. Silverman, M.D. Mission Director Cc: Peter Bilek, R_N. Stephen Pap, M.D.
