As a non-profit organization dedicated to helping babies in need, we are constantly amazed and grateful for the generosity of our community. We would like to take a moment to express our heartfelt thanks to the wonderful knitters at Willandra Village in Cromer and the lovely ladies at the Belrose Country Club.

Over the years, the ladies at Belrose Country Club have supplied us with the most fabulous baby knits, including some pieces from the talented and lovely 101-year-old Norma. And now, in addition to our beloved baby knits from Belrose, we are thrilled to also receive knitted vests from the ladies at Willandra Village.

The beautiful and talented work of all our lovely ladies never ceases to amaze us, and their generous nature is truly inspiring. We would also like to extend a special thanks to Sandy and her husband John for their wonderful management of the donations.

We are so grateful for all the support we have received from our community, and we couldn’t do this without the kindness and dedication of people like you. Thank you for helping us make a difference in the lives of babies in need.

Back in 2004, while working with the Kiriwinan translation team in Australia to help translate the Bible, The Late Nelson Toposona (left), Lepani Ahab – our CFK on-island manager (standing), and Daniel Fellows (right) made a new friend. The three of them posed for a photo with Jack, the kookaburra, who is known as the national bird of Australia. The photo captures a moment of friendship and adventure that surely left lasting memories for everyone involved.

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. ✨😁💖

Please restart flights to Kiriwina!!!!

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!

Pictured above, our beloved Health Care Worker Jansen Toposona (header image), and our dear family and CFK friends, Nelson Toposona (Jansen’s brother) and David Antonio, have passed away in the past five years. They are deeply missed and forever loved.

Our trip was a huge success! The photos below showcase our outstanding primary healthcare educators, Midwives Shea Caplice and Jacqui Andrews, alongside our VBA leaders Ruth and Dulcie, and our new CFK staff member, Midwife Bokawau, with LHC Sister Linesse and our in-country manager, Toks Bwaina and our wonderful CFK VBAs. 👏

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! 👏💖
