The arrival of the dignity kits at their destination after weeks of travel is a powerful reminder of the potential for positive change. With these kits, girls can strive towards their dreams without interruption, and the world can move one step closer to a brighter future. ✨😁💖

We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to all of our sponsors, donors, and volunteers who have made this journey possible. Despite the challenges posed by the lack of transportation due to the absence of flights to Kiriwina, which resulted in a treacherous long boat journey, we have successfully completed many stages and covered miles to ensure that the donations reach their destination safely. We are thrilled that our partnership with MBPHA is providing us with a secure facility at the LHC to store and distribute these life-saving donations. This achievement would not have been possible without the hard work and dedication of our team. Well done!

We were hit by a wave of nostalgia today as we reminisced about our CFK VBA training sessions on this day 2018. It is amazing to see how these targeted strategies have had a profound ongoing impact on our VBAs, which has helped them achieve stellar results. We want to extend a huge shout-out to everyone who was involved in making those training sessions a success. It’s incredible how this training can have such a positive impact for all Kiriwinans.!!!!

We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to all our amazing sponsors and donors for their generous contributions. Your selflessness and kindness are making a true difference in the world.

Eight boxes filled with your donations have been sent to Kiriwina to support those in need. The birthing and dignity kits, pencils and sharpeners for the schools, signage for the new CFK office in the LHC, knitted and sewn baby items, birthing record books, and more are finally on their way to Kiriwina. By donating, you’re providing vital support to those in need, and helping to improve lives. We appreciate your support and encourage you to join us in our efforts to make a positive impact on the world. Thank you! 👏💖

With deep sadness, we announce the passing of Jansen Toposona, on Friday 13th, 10pm. Jansen was a former Health Extension Officer and retired public servant who worked with the Health Department. He operated the only dispensary clinic in the largest village on Kiriwina, Kavataria, that helped hundreds of people over the years with his experience and expertise. Jansen was an expert in acupuncture, and CFK had provided him with hundreds of acupuncture needles that he used to assist many people in recovering from pain and illness. His passing is a significant loss and he will be greatly missed.

Jansen filmed here reflecting on the success of the 2019 CFK VBA leaders training sessions.

Our CFK VBAs are off to a great start in their new office and we couldn’t be more excited! We are absolutely thrilled to receive photos and videos from their first leaders meeting. Seeing our team working together in this new space is truly inspiring. Thank you for sharing these moments with us!

Thanks again to the MBPHA and Losuia Health Centre for making this all possible.

Stay tuned for more updates 👏👏👏

We installed these pumps four years ago to provide clean drinking water to remote villages. Thanks to these pumps, many lives have been saved. However, the pumps need regular maintenance, which requires money. Would you be willing to donate $5 a month to help us maintain these pumps? Your donation will help hundreds of villages gain access to clean drinking water, which is crucial for good health and wellbeing.

PLEASE DONATE NOW!

We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to Nicole, a generous P&O passenger, for reaching out to our charity devoted to improving the lives of the Kiriwinan people. Below are some photos from her trip that deeply touched her heart.

Additionally, we have a question for P&O that has been emailed directly to them and we are awaiting a reply.

“Delivery of our life-saving donations to Kiriwina has become more difficult since flights to the area have been suspended. We are now forced to take extreme measures to ensure our birthing and dignity kits reach their intended recipients, resulting in delays, added expenses, and uncertainty. We have been requesting support from P&O Cruises for over 11 years, as they visit Kiriwina eight times a year and can transport a few boxes of these essential items during their trips. Despite their claims of supporting other charities on the island, the recent surge in births on Kiriwina – with 20,000 more people than four years ago – means that many more birthing kits are needed. We work closely with the Islanders, the Milne Bay Provincial Health Authority, and the Education Department to provide our programs and donations. We urge P&O to reconsider their refusal to assist in delivering these vital supplies to Kiriwinan women during their cruise ship visits. P&O needs to contribute to the community’s wellbeing.”

Kiriwina Secondary School Principal Mr. Cyril T. accepts Dignity Kit delivery.

We want to express our gratitude to our generous sponsors and donors, and also acknowledge the unwavering determination of the Kiriwinan community. Despite the ongoing lack of air transport to Kiriwina, we are committed to providing vital assistance through alternative means, such as perilous boat journeys that require great effort and caution.
