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 :).

Our knitting women’s groups are growing, and we are delighted to announce that the Swizknitters from  St. Swithun’s Church Pymble have joined our donor knitters in knitting for babies in need. We are incredibly thankful for the ongoing support from the Belrose and Willandra Village ladies.

We are amazed by the talent and generosity of our community and extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone involved, including Sandy and her husband John for managing the donations.

Your support is invaluable, and we are truly grateful for helping us make a difference in the lives of babies in need. These latest donations are waiting for customs approval in POM… they are on their way! Thank you!

We want to give a huge shoutout to Barb, a wonderful P&O passenger, for going above and beyond to deliver essential birthing kits and children’s clothes to our CFK Village Birth Attendant coordinator, Bokawau, last week.

Due to the airport closure, the delivery of these crucial items to our people on Kiriwina would have taken months, but thanks to Barb, they reached us in just a week! 🚢

We’re reaching out to any other passengers who might be interested in helping our cause. Your support can make a real difference and save lives. We will make sure to mail you the items. Please consider joining us in this meaningful endeavor! 💌

We’re thrilled to share that birthing kits for cruise ship passengers are en route to support our wonderful Village birth attendants on Kiriwina. Due to a high pregnancy rate, we need more birthing kits, and the generous support from two passengers has made a world of difference for the hundreds of mothers and babies we aim to assist. We are grateful for the impact you are making! Special thanks to the amazing, incomparable Miss Kathy for volunteering to help pack these kits for urgent delivery. Thank you for your support! #MakingADifference #SupportingMothersAndBabies #caringforkiriwina #strongwomenstrongbabies #reopenkiriwinaairport #P&Ocruisepassengers #P&Ocruises #PacificPrincessCruises

Yesterday, we remembered the great Rev Dr. Ralph Lawton on the third anniversary of his passing. His contributions to the world and the Kiriwinan people will never be forgotten. It’s also been a year since the Kiriwinan’s organised a beautiful celebration of his life. Check out this short video of the event at LAWTON DAY 2023 – THE MOVIE – Caring For Kiriwina Ltd. Let’s honour his legacy by continuing to spread love and kindness in our communities.

We’re thrilled to announce that the latest batch of medical, knitted, birthing, and dignity kits have finally arrived in PNG! A big thanks to all the amazing volunteers, sponsors, and donors who made this possible. It’s always a moment of celebration when we receive confirmation that our much-needed donations have made it to Port Moresby. Now, we need to transport the supplies via plane to Alotau, followed by a slow boat journey to Kiriwina. We’re sending our best wishes for a safe and speedy journey to their final destination. Let’s continue to work together to support those in need!
