Responding to the Corona Virus Pandemic
SUPPORT FOR FIJI AND PAPUA NEW GUINEA - July 2020
|
Dear Friends of HOPE worldwide,
I would like to thank you for your support to the COVID19 relief effort in Fiji and Papua New Guinea, but a special thanks to the South Pacific & Australia (SPA) region Churches of Christ. Donations made so far through the HOPE Day of Giving have raised approximately $50,000 (events, online donations and work matching). Additional funds have also been given directly through church collections (an additional $50,000) to support members of the Churches of Christ adversely affected. |
Funds are being used for Food security, Health care, and Primary Education in Fiji and Papua New Guinea. Any funds over and above the needs this year will be added to a building fund for a Community Centre in Papua New Guinea. The economic impact continues, and if you would still like to make a donation, this can be done by Bank Transfer (add COVID19 relief to message box) or through GiveNow. This short YouTube video describes the need and the videos below give further updates and can be downloaded.
Warm Regards Mark Timlin, Country Director |
AUSTRALIAN BUSHFIRE UPDATE

JANUARY 2020: Hopefully, the worst is over, but fire season in Australia is not over yet, so the need of the hour is more rain! The other need is to support the communities affected as well as engage in fundraising. Below is an update from our supporting Churches of Christ where members and their families have been actively involved.
