A Conversation with Father Jack

I had a chance to sit down with Father Jack once he came back from his trip to ask him a little bit about what he'd like to see for Santa Clotilde in the future and I'm going to try and sum it up...

• He'd like someone to take over as medical director. He's 65 and has a heart condition, he's ready to hand over the reins, but hasn't had any takers. The Peruvian doctors tend to stay for a few years and then move on.
• He'd like to develop a relationship with a bigger institution to get some more outside funding. He has been too busy running the place to tell people about Santa and fundraise. But they could use the money.
• He'd love to dedicate some more time to prevention. They provide great medical care at Santa, but they barely skim the surface of dealing with the underlying causes of some of the most common things they see. People need clean water, latrines, better nutrition. And he'd like to be able to send more people out to the surrounding communities.
  

So, any takers?
