HOPE worldwide Australia supports humanitarian programs in Papua New Guinea and FIji through our partnering organisations. Funds will support the following priority programs:
Papua New Guinea:
1. Providing essential primary health care through 5 clinics managed by HOPE worldwide PNG. These clinics treat over 65,000 people annually and require ongoing operating costs to be funded. The most remote clinic is a health post in Kalvary, Simbu provice, Central Highlands. This small clinic allows remote communities living in mountainous areas to access essential primary health care. The clinic was built in December 2022 as part of a HOPE Volunteer. Due to its remote location, it requires adjacent staff accommodation to be built. This is planned for later in 2023 and will house the clinic staff.
2. Support for the Mercy Care primary school which caters for 250 students. Support will cover teacher salary, training, stationery and developing a nurturing care framework to foster better health and wellbeing of students.
3. Building fund for a Community Centre in Port Moresby. This will used for HOPE worldwide PNG education programs as well as providing a permanent location for the HOPE worldwide PNG office (currently renting an office) and a meeting place for the Port Moresby Church of Christ.
Fiji:
1. Food aid to vulnerable families. The current food vouchure program has been very successful in preventing hunger for hundreds of families from its inception in 2021. Funds are needed to keep this going in 2023.
2. Building homes for the homeless. International volunteers plan to build 2 homes as part of a HOPE Volunteer Corps in Dec 2023. https://www.hopeww.org/fijihvc2023
3. Developing Mental Health and Wellbeing. Outreach to vulnerable communities around Latouka providing health services to tackle social issues such as domestic violence and poor mental health. In addition blood drives are planned to help meet the urgent needs in the hospitals.
