Written by Jerry Ligairi on April 30, 2024
Mistbows Special Friends is a self funded charity group founded in 2020. With its many works in reaching out to the communities of Fiji, they are excited to host an initiative battling NCDs.
They have taken the responsibility of feeding the less fortunate, mainly aiming their efforts at youths and children in need, either on the streets or in the different children’s homes and even the elderly such as those in Father Law home who have not had someone visit them in a while. Their most recent work being done for Golden Age Home, Loloma Orphanage, Veilomani Boys Home and the Women’s Prisons in Fiji.
This May, they are hosting a 3 month challenge as their contribution to the many campaigns done in Fiji to combat NCDs.
In Fiji, one of the major risks to our population is the rising crisis of non – communicable diseases (NCD’s) becoming the biggest killer. One of its leading causes is physical inactivity and an unhealthy diet creating excessive and an unhealthy weight in many individuals.
This 3 month challenge will be an exciting journey for many members of the community, as Mistbows aim to have 200 participants by registering 40 to 50 teams of 4s by the time of the event.
They plan to have the closing ceremony where all the 40-50 teams present will be awarded for their efforts at the end of the 3 month term. This will be hosted in the Serua Provicial Building in Navua at 6pm, Thursday, August the 22nd.
