Community Project – Blue Moon Opportunity
The Tropical islands of Vanuatu are home to many isolated island communities, with over 158 distinct cultures and languages. Rick and Wendy began the Community Project in September 2004, when they were introduced to a group of beautiful people from Moto Lava, one of the far northern tropical islands of Vanuatu, in the South Pacific.
Isolated Communities
Because of the huge distance from the capital, Port Vila, these isolated communities receive very little assistance from the Government. A supply ship may arrive from one to 6 months apart. A small plane flies in only once or twice a week, weather permitting.
There is only one truck on the island, donated to the community by the Vanuatu government. Often there are no parts available for the truck. When it's not working, supplies are carried to the village by the men. A 25K hike.
Seachange Lodge Resort has committed 10% of all profit to this community from 2004. Hand powered sharpening stone, nails, hammers, through to soap, tins of dried milk, milo, sewing machines and material have been sent, plus desperately needed school supplies and teachers' resources and first aid supplies.
Community Project - Urgent Need
Rick says: “We are so appreciative of our guests, who bring in the desperately needed school supplies, for us to ship north. This includes a Lion’s Club from the Central Coast, New South Wales and other organizations. Now the urgent need is to help these villagers give their children a high school education, for they live in a no-cash economy.”
Education is not free, so the majority of the children remain uneducated. These horrific statistic have changed little since the survey in 1999. Many of the parents cannot read or write.
- Only 18.2% go to High School
- Only 55.8% of children get to year 6
- 26% never go to school at all.
These children have dreams, like other children anywhere in the world. Many of them will never have the opportunity to leave their remote island home, or see the inside of a high-school classroom, or fulfil their dreams. While they appreciate their rich cultural heritage and traditions, this is not enough for them to take their rightful place in the 21st century. They want to reach out to help their own community.
YouMe Support Foundation and Child Trust Fund are one of the few foundations assisting these children.
In partnership with winaresort.com, YouMe Support Foudation and Child Trust Fund provides non-repayable education grants, so these children can gain a high school education. YouMe Support Foundation will assist successful students to go on to full financial independence, where possible. The students will be encouraged to use their new found knowledge back in their home village.
