AIDS Medical Care Car Purchased!
Nick just sent me these pictures of the Silas Christian Foundation purchase of a used Datsun. The car will be used to make sure all of the AIDS patients in the slums of Silas and Munyaka are taken care of. These slums have very poor access, and walking at night can be dangerous. The rains make transportation even tougher. Until now the only alternatives were bicycles or calling an expensive taxi. Now Dr. Oronje and Nick are able to make quick rounds and respond rapidly to emergencies in the area. They express their love and thanks to you for the prayers and for the donation of this vehicle!

The top photo is of Nick picking up the blind HIV positive client Jennifer to take her for a checkup at the clinic. The car needs a few upgrades to get it running real well, but its already a tremendous help for the vulnerable in the region.

Trip to Texas
In 3 hours I'll be flying down to Texas for two weeks. I'll be staying at Camp Eagle, where I'll be integrating the Lahash mission and vision and partner projects into the summer program. Please pray for my flight there and the words and images and group processing that will be planned during these two weeks.

Progress on the Board and the Incorporation
Many of you will be interested to know that our board is complete! Karin Rosain will be the chairperson, Dan Holcomb the president, Erin Willett the secretary, and Liesha Adams is the treasurer.

Also, on Friday I had another meeting with our incredible lawyers, Emily and Marco, and we are days away from incorporating, finishing our bylaws, adopting them as a board, and then onto the 501(c)3 application. Please continue to pray for us as we make long term decisions regarding the structure of Lahash.

Home Front
Thank you very much to all of you for your personal support for me (Dan Holcomb). For those of you who don't know, Lahash is committed to sending 100% of donations to Africa. This means that those on staff at Lahash (currently just me) need to raise their own support. I'm raising $2000 per month, which will be used for personal expenses, travel costs, and office needs. As of April 2nd, I've been able to raise $600 per month. With a good chunk of that going just to printing costs, there is still a big need at the moment. If any of you would like to help with personal or administration costs, please email, call (503-348-7265), or write to: Dan Holcomb, 10750 NE 4th Ave, Portland, OR 97211. Thank you!
