Middle eastern?  Pick something  appropriate.  The drivers donated their gas (Chris, Margery) and the trip leader donated the  put-in costs of the guides.  Oscar Castillo, who trained with ICO river in the '90s, drove his truck, moved  5 boats, and donated his gas.  A huge contributor!  He's talking about moving  to Colorado.  Maybe he can set up an ICO program in Longmont someday.
