Our wonderful VBA’s distributing the soaps, birthing kits and birth registration books.
In-country manager notes that due to Covid 19 restrictions on public gatherings only a hand full of VBAs were asked to come and distribute the items. Thank you to all our fantastic sponsors and donors for making this all possible!

What beautiful eyelashes for a boy… no wonder we got confused. Don’t you just feel like giving them all a great big hug… and the VBA’s as well. Missing you guys hugely! x
COVID-19 NO SEW FACE MASK INSTRUCTIONS
The soap sent, two boxes have already being received and one box has been offloaded in Alotau.
The masks and sanitizers are still in Pom as the flights to Losuia have being cancelled due to not enough passengers travelling to and from Losuia. Hoping to get them over to the Losuia Health Centre asap!
While you are waiting for these PPE masks here are some DIY ‘do it yourself’ mask production instructions. Once the Kiriwinan translation comes in we will revise artwork and print some more posters for distribution across the Island.
