Fiji 2017






On the 7th of July, I will be going to Fiji for a month to volunteer with ThinkPacific. ThinkPacific is not a big organisation but it does help create just the right amount change in the world. 

There is not a lot is known about Fiji, apart from its rich culture and incredible landscape. People don’t bother to look at the negative side of things. This is a huge contributor as to why I chose to volunteer in Fiji. People will travel to countries like Fiji for luxury, as they are often oblivious of the misfortunes within the country. They are unaware of the fact that: 

  • Over a third of children in Fiji grow up in poverty, living on less than a dollar a day 
  • Only 50% of children have access to a safe drinking water and proper sanitation 
  • Just 5% of children gain early years education



30% of the money donated will go towards ThinkPacific, and to providing long-term support for the schools and communities in Fiji. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for my team and I, and unrivaled experience. Your contribution will account to so much. It may seem like a small thing to you, which you think will go unnoticed, but it won’t feel like that to the Fijian community. They will benefit from your generous donations.
