A non-governmental organisation is providing 100 cooked meals a week to people in the Navua and Pacific Harbour area who are struggling to put food on the table.
First Responders founder Sarah Conrad said there were a number of NGOs offering groceries and other support, so her group wanted to do “something different”.
“In light of the ongoing pandemic lockdown, which is depriving many of jobs and subsequent income, we are offering 100 hot meals to individuals and families who do not have the means to tuck into a meal or feed their loved ones,” Ms Conrad said.
“We hope, where possible, this inspires others to do the same.”
Ms Conrad said each meal pack contained a serve of chicken curry, rice and roti.
“Please get in touch with us if you or anyone you know can benefit from this food drive – which we believe is the first of its kind in Fiji.
“However, because of logistics and movement restrictions, the recipients must be located within the Pacific Harbour to Navua area.”
Ms Conrad said First Responders could be contacted on 2122738, 7428248 or 9909197 or firstrespondersfiji@gmail.com
“We are committed to protecting your privacy and all enquiries will be treated as confidential.”
