Smiles all around at the distribution of donations by the VBA’s 1.1.2023.
Thanks to all our sponsors/donors, Australia post and the mammoth efforts of our in-country manager, our donations finally arrived on Kiriwina for distribution. Yay!
Answering the call out for help to supply any medical supplies possible, we have sent what we were permitted to send with the help of Pharmacy Select Balgowlah and our wonderful sponsors and donors.
Due to shortage of basic drugs and other medical items the only health Centre on an Island of over 55,000 people, Losuia Health Centre, has closed to all but the most life threatening cases, it is currently closed for out patients.
The people of Kiriwina are in a serious health threatening situation if Health Authorities and local MP do not address the issue.
Please donate or contact us if you have any supplies you wish to donate:
