Despite the heavy rain experienced this morning in the Capital City, youths and children residing at Jittu Estate turned up in numbers to be part of the Jittu Vuvale Fun Day.
The founder of Inspire Pacific and facilitator of the Tagane Mai programme, Ben Morrison says the vision behind the event is to unite the community and engage young people in a day that is not just about games, but about encouraging, inspiring, and speaking hope into their lives.
He says the fun-filled day will feature activities for all ages, including a bouncy castle and games for children, family-friendly competitions, and a volleyball tournament with around 20 teams, most of them from Jittu Estate.
Morrison says Inspire Pacific initially began working with Jittu Estate because it is close to their church in Samabula and the number of young men from the area who were living on the streets, loitering, or passing through the juvenile centre.
The fun day started with a march from the Police Post to the Lagilagi Housing Multipurpose Court.
The Fun Day will continue until 6pm this evening.
