Habitat for Humanity Fiji will today receive $17,300 from the Japanese government for rehabilitation works on the water supply system at Marou village on Naviti Island.
In December 2014 the Embassy of Japan provided funding assistance to Habitat for Humanity Fiji for a water supply project at Marou village.
The project was successfully completed but was damaged by Tropical Cyclone Winston
TC Winston also damaged the solar panels, controller unit and two 10,200‑litre water tanks.
Due to financial constraints, Habitat for Humanity Fiji again sought the Embassy’s assistance for the rehabilitation works for the water project at Marou Village.
Recognising the plight of Habitat for Humanity Fiji and importance of water supply to Marou Village, the Embassy of Japan again decided to assist Habitat for Humanity Fiji in the rehabilitation works.
The grant signing will be held this afternoon.
