On our recent trip to to Vanuatu several needs were highlighted to us, one of them being an opportunity to support the women on Pele Island to go on an excursion to Port Vila! Some of them have not yet visited their nations capital (it’s a 45 minute boat ride and then an hour or so on the bus).

The excursion is being organised by Helen (who some of you know) who lives in Launomoa on Pele. She runs the women’s group on the island (age range from late teens to 99yrs). Sixty women are keen to see Port Vila – visit Parliament House, museum, bank, harbour etc. It’s an educational trip, a spiritual journey and an opportunity for these women to feel valued & inspired.

These women live very humble lives and the cost of this one day excursion would be out of reach for most of them.

If you’d like to make a little donation towards this we’d (and they!) will sooo appreciate it. 100% of donations will go directly to covering the cost of excursion for as many of the keen 60 women as possible.

Donations can be deposited into our bank account with reference: PELEW

Or cash donations can be given to Jane Lean or Karyn Sippel.

Thank you for the way so many of you have cared for the people of Pele island in the past!
