      Congratulations from Spain!! Sella showed me your project and I thought it was wonderful. I'm very happy to have participated. I am impatient to see the Cofan community benefits, although I know you'll have a hard but exciting work now. Good luck for this and the following projects!!

      This is very inspirational. I really appreciate the tone of the messages you sent during the funraising. Even if you hadn't reached the initial goal, the value of those messages is priceless; this one is particularly memorable: 'I am absolutely grateful to all of you for Being and for supporting this project that is a part of my Heart and Soul...... You are all making this possible! Thank you! Much Love & Light ' Thank you!
