    Description
    Description

    Save Our Fiji is a non-profit water organisation that transforms lives by providing access to clean and safe drinking water in the most vulnerable and remote communities in Fiji.

    Save our Fiji helps fund water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) programs for the most vulnerable and remote communities in Fiji while monitoring, evaluating, and maintaining programs to operate sustainably on a long-term basis.

    Expected Impact

    Save our Fiji’s approach is to strengthen national systems and capacity through a mix of community-based activities and collecting evidence to advocate for equitable investments in children. During emergencies, we are also there to provide support for those in need.

    Save Our Fiji in partnership with the governments and civil society organisations, contributes to the rights of children to survival and development through improved drinking-water.

    Implementation of the Project/Activity

    Save Our Fiji wants to work with partners across sectors, including financial institutions and water service providers, to expand access to affordable financing for water and sanitation. We want to work with governments to achieve universal and equitable access to safe and affordable drinking water for all. 

    Save Our Fiji wants to provide the most vulnerable and remote communities in Fiji with healthy drinking water through the implementation of water filters.

    Partners

    Save Our Fiji is currently looking for sponsors. Please contact us if you would like to work with us.

    Save Our Fiji will raise money to provide healthy drinking water in the most vulnerable and remote communities in Fiji through donations, partnerships and the help of the government.
