Dear Mr. Ciaccio.


Thank you for the letter. I was really glad to get it.
First of all I want to thank you for your attention and aspiration to
help those people who have endured terrible grief (shock) when lost their
relatives during the act of terrorism that occurred 9 May , 2002. It is
really pleasant for me to realize that there are still people who are not
indifferent to the destiny of injured people.
I am glad also that you are anxious about the destinies of the mothers
who have lost their children in that terrible day. I really touch with your
sincere desire to help
them and I shall be glad to organize your charitable payment. You see in
our
difficult time just some people are ready to leave their contribution to
lives of suffering people. And I see that our task also is to not remain
indifferent to their destinies.
Therefore accepting your offer I want to inform you that our financier
will communicate with you concerning the account in the near future and you
can discuss all the necessary details with him/
Besides seeing your sincere desire to help requiring people I want to
offer you to help us with charities in your country. We really hope that
there will be people who will follow to your example.


Yours faithfully,

Mr. Gritsai
