Despite the increased cost of transportation due to the lack of flights, more donations have safely arrived on Kiriwina. This journey is not an easy one! From medical supplies to birthing kits and dignity kits to pencils for exams, every contribution can make a difference in the lives of the women and children on Kiriwina. Let’s celebrate every donation that makes it safely to Kiriwina and continue to support the people of Kiriwina in any way we can and thank our wonderful sponsors and donors who made this all possible!!!
We wanted to take a moment to express our gratitude to Pharmacist Jodi and the team at Pharmacy Select Balgowlah for their continued support. Kiriwina, a community in need, is still lacking basic drugs, but these fabulous donations from Pharmacy Select will go some way in helping the desperate people of Kiriwina. We are pleased to inform you that the donations have already been dispatched to Kiriwina.
Thank you once again for your generosity and dedication to making the world a better place!
Thanks to the generosity of our donors, we have been able to deliver life-saving donations of birthing kits, dignity kits, and medicine to Village Birth Attendants and the LHC.

Together, we can make a positive impact and save lives. Please consider giving generously to our cause.
The Belrose and Willandra Village Ladies knitted items have been distributed to the Kiriwinan mothers and newborns at the Louisa Health Centre and in villages across Kiriwina and the surrounding remote Islands. We’re a non-profit that helps babies in need and we’re grateful for our community’s support. Thanks to the knitters at Willandra Village and the Belrose Country Club, especially Norma and the Willandra Village ladies. We’re amazed by everyone’s generosity and Sandy and John’s help. Thank you!!!
We are reaching out to you today with an urgent request for your assistance. Our organization needs your help to transport crucial donations to Kiriwina. Unfortunately, flights to Kiriwina are currently unavailable, and critical donations need to be transported immediately.
We are kindly requesting you to help us deliver a small backpack containing birthing kits. This small contribution could make a significant difference in the lives of many mothers and newborns. Your generosity can help save lives and provide the necessary medical supplies to people in need.
We appreciate the great work done by Princess Cruise passengers Bert and Lynn, who have already demonstrated their generosity towards this cause. We kindly request you to follow their example and join us in this noble cause.
Please do not hesitate to contact us at INFO@CARINGFORKIRIWINA.ORG.AU if you feel compelled to help. Every contribution, no matter how small, is deeply appreciated and will make a significant difference in the lives of those who receive it.
We assure you that our team members will collect the backpacks on the island once the boat arrives, and we will take care of all the necessary arrangements to ensure that your donation reaches the people who need it the most.
Thank you for considering our request, and we are looking forward to your positive response.

Yesterday evening, we had a meeting with our CFK directors and in-country manager to discuss our successes in 2023 and to plan for 2024. We are grateful for this lovely group of people who are helping to continue the legacy of our founder, Margaret Lawton. Today marks the ninth anniversary of her passing, and we miss her every day. Margaret’s spirit guides all CFK decisions, along with the spirit of her husband, the Reverend Doctor Ralph Lawton. We are thankful for the time we had with them, and we know that their presence made the world a better place.
