Dear
Sir,
As
representatives for the Lions Club of Sweden we are coming to Moscow next week
on our way to Novozybkov, Bryansk Oblast, where we have plans to start a great
humanitarian aid-project. Among other actions we are planning to restore the
hospital and the maternity house in the town - two or three buildings in very
bad condition.
Since 1997 we have sent humanitarian aid to the
people of Novozybkov, who suffer from the effects of the Chernobyl accident
1986. We must have sent at least 10 big trailers filled with equipment. Beside
that we have driven 3 ambulances and 4 handicap-minibuses to Novozybkov 1999 and
2000.
Lions
Club is a worldwide organization with a lot of strength and resources when it
comes to serve mankind. We are now planning to make Novozybkov one of our
greatest international project. Therefore we like to present ourselves, our
purpose and the condition we are working under. It is necessary that we create
good, safe and sometimes fast routines, if we shall be able to succeed in our
purpose. There are also some problems to solve in this matter.
With this letter we are happy to suggest the meeting
with you to be at your office in Moscow
October 22 at 11.00 am. Thank you for seeing us!

Dear Sirs,
Concerning the Swedish Lions Clubs project Children of Chernobyl /
Novozybkov
Thank you, Mr Novikov, for seeing us October
22, 2002 in Moscow in this matter.
Our project has now succeed and is no longer a
concern only for Vallentuna Lions Club and the district 101-U with 45 Lions
Clubs. Since May 2003 the project for Lions Club Sweden and therefore a concern
to all the 545 local clubs in our country. That means that we have 1 millon
crowns (about 3 miljon rubles) to spend on rebuilding dr Lydias hospital, the
Maternity House of Novozybkov, during the time 1/7 2003 to 1/7 2004. We are
therefore going to Moscow and Novozybkov in August to start the project.
If we, during this year, will do a good job in
this project, we will have 2 more years and 2 more million crowns to spend on
the project. We will also get 75 000 USD from America to the project. There is
also money to get for education of doctors, nurses and hospital technicians.
Beside that our project will be in focus for “Världens Barn” which means
Children of the World and is a great collection produced by the Swedish Television.
As mentioned above, a Swedish delegation is
coming to Moscow in August. We ask you to meet us for a discussion August 22 at
11.00 at the Commission. The reason is that we:
1) want you to meet dr Lydia Bavkunova who is
the head of the maternity house in Novozybkov
2) like to have very good relationship with the
Commission, meaning that you should always know what
is
going on within the project.
3 like to keep you informed about our work,
4 want to discuss the new Russian law
concerning humanitarian-aid-transports
5 once again want to discuss the routines of
our work
6) want to discuss the possibility to be
excused from taxes of material we will buy in Russia
Last time
we were happy to have writer Alla Yaroshinskaya (former Advisor to the Russian
President Boris Yeltsin, member of National committee of UNESCO) to our help
when meeting the Commission. This time she unfortunately will be in USA and can
not help us. From what I heard from Alla Yaroshinskaya, Mr Deputy Sergei
Kuleshov speaks English, so we will probably manage by our own this time.
