Board of Directors

"In 1970, my brother Luke asked us for help for his ambitious project to reverse the health picture of the children of the Amazon.  We responded by forming Esperança in Phoenix.  Over the years, this has involved a considerable amount of work and sacrifice on our part but I am proud to have been able to provide significant help.  I regard Esperança as one of the greatest accomplishments of my lifetime."  Jerry Tupper
