Dear brothers and sisters, We all started well with this idea of West Nile Foundation. Its seems getting organized on the ground to formalize the ogarnization is even getting tougher.
I would strongly encourage the acting executive on the ground to try to build a team and consesus around the idea of getting together and approve the documents. Let us keep up the enthusiasm moving forward. We have so much talent here among us and put this talent to use. The worst mistake will be to kill the the public support and high expection they have for this initiative. As Professionals, if we start something and drop it like a hot cake, this will reflect badly on us all. How can we blame people managing different departments in the region for doing nothing or too little if we behave the same way?
