Every Child deserves an Education please support in 2025
Donation protected
Bula! It's Dr Eleni and Christina, we have been volunteering and supporting St Tabitha home in Lautoka Fiji since 2019. Our efforts are self funded and we are committed to the education and care of the children.
Please consider giving to the less fortunate children in Fiji in 2025. Every child needs an education. When they return to school in the coming weeks we want them to feel confident, positive, happy and not under privileged with all the items they need to have a successful year.
The Government of Fiji continues to provide free schooling to children age 6-16 years and this has enabled ALL the children at St Tabitha Orphanage access school. However, ACCESS to Education, begins by having the resources needed to enter the school gates on the very first day.
Imagine the cost of a school year for not 1, 2 or 3 children but for 20 primary and high school students! Add to this picture, other children in the local community at Lautoka and a remote community in Labasa where the parents are struggling to just put food on the table. Access to education may be on offer, but the cost of sending the children to school is not possible.
Together we can make a difference this school year and beyond. Funds will also be utilised for ongoing tutoring and the scholarship program as the children progress into vocational and institutional pathways.
Over the years Paradise 4 kids Fiji raised money to buy a vehicle to transport the children of St Tabitha’s Orphanage to and from school and purchase school items. This year, our BACK-TO-SCHOOL CAMPAIGN is going to make a difference to even more children.
Aside from the necessary paperwork on the first day of school, they will need:
- Formal and sports uniforms
- School and sports shoes
- School bag (pencil case, lunch box etc)
- Packed Lunch
- Stationary
- Text books
- Money for various school levies & extra sports activities
- Transport /Fuel
- Tutors every Saturday (and yes their grades have improved considerably in 2024)
Our goal is to raise $10,000 by the start of the school term 2025 to be able to purchase much needed items for the return to school. Your donation big or small will help us achieve this goal.
If you require an Australian TAX DEDUCTABLE receipt please reach out to us and we can send you a tax receipt at the end of this campaign. Or REF `Tax D’ on your GoFundMe donation.
