The America Fiji Sports Commission has made a significant contribution of $5,000 to WOWS Kids Fiji, an organization dedicated to supporting children battling cancer. Narend Narayan, the President of the Commission, has a long-standing commitment to enhancing the lives of vulnerable children.
During a ceremony following the 2024 Flick Hygiene Pacific Community Cup in Lautoka, Narayan, accompanied by Vice President Vinay Nair and other board members, presented the donation to Rajesh Patel, the President of Fiji FA. Patel expressed heartfelt gratitude for the Commission’s generosity, emphasizing that their support reaches beyond the realm of football and brings hope to those in need, showcasing the true essence of the tournament.
In a show of commitment to community welfare, Patel announced that Fiji FA will continue its support for WOWS Kids by donating a dollar from each ticket sold during the four-day Pacific Community Cup event. He highlighted that Fiji FA has already contributed over $60,000 to community initiatives, reinforcing their mission to make a difference in the lives of children facing critical health challenges.
This collaboration not only provides financial assistance to an important cause but also fosters a spirit of community and compassion through sports. The actions of the America Fiji Sports Commission and Fiji FA serve as a reminder of the positive impact that collective efforts can have on those in need.
In summary, grassroots initiatives like these exemplify how sports can serve as a platform for social good, uniting people for a cause greater than themselves.
