2. Supplies & Contributions

• Some overseas universities have extended offers of assistance. An inquiry was received from the president of G?ttingen University. We are working on administrative procedures for receiving such support. Offers of assistance will probably increase hereafter. We wish to set up a clear liaison and system for receiving supplies and monetary contributions.
