We’d like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to P&O Cruises Australia for their invaluable support in making a significant difference in the lives of the women and children of Kiriwina. Thanks to their generous assistance, our donations were safely delivered earlier this month. The ship’s officer delivered birthing kits directly to our CFK representatives who were eagerly awaiting the ships arrival.

Due to a lack of transport and the closure of the airport, the isolated community of Kiriwina has been facing exorbitant delivery costs and desperate circumstances. The impact of P&O Cruises Australia’s support cannot be overstated.

We are thrilled to be able to continue this wonderful partnership and are incredibly grateful for the opportunity to work together. P&O Cruises Australia, we appreciate you and the positive impact you have made on the lives of those in need. A huge thank you to Lynne Scrivens and Simone Pighini for working so collaboratively with us to achieve such a successful outcome.

Thanks to the wonderful generosity of the knitters from the Belrose and Willandra Village, and St Swithuns Church, our CFK mothers and their babies now have stunning new knits to cherish. Special thanks to Sandy and her husband, John, for their exceptional efforts in managing the donations. Last week, our incredible in-country manager, Toks, captured some beautiful photos of our mothers and babies adorned in their new knits. This heartwarming sight is sure to bring a smile to your face :).

Keep an eye out for more photos to come …

Our agents in Kaibola, Losuia, and Alotau have all received much-needed new phones. Communication is vital, and although internet access can be limited, it is very important to try to keep our communications alive by any means available. Here’s a great photo of Bokawau from Losuia and Daniel from Kaibola receiving their new phones. Yay! 🌟📱 #CommunicationIsKey #TeamWork #caringforkiriwina #strong womenstrongbabies
