Naroon Buksh, the driving force behind Kings Boxing Promotion, continues to champion the sport of boxing in Fiji while simultaneously prioritizing community support. His recent efforts were exemplified by the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with WOWS Kids Fiji, alongside a significant sponsor. This partnership is dedicated to providing aid to children fighting cancer.
Buksh expressed his commitment, saying, “This is a good way we can give back to our community and just give and provide help whenever we can. And through these boxing events, we have been able to do that.” This collaboration aims not only to raise awareness about childhood cancer but also to support families affected by it.
The forthcoming boxing event, named “This Is Boxing,” is set to take place at the Vodafone Arena in Suva next weekend. The event will feature both local and emerging boxers, reinforcing the connection between the sport and invaluable community initiatives. Previous boxing events organized by Buksh have successfully mobilized resources for charitable organizations, further emphasizing the impact sports can have beyond entertainment.
Mere Williams, the Operations Manager for WOWS Kids Fiji, expressed her appreciation for the collaboration. She noted that this partnership presents new opportunities to raise awareness about childhood cancer. The anticipated boxing matches promise to not only showcase athletic talent but also to highlight the compassion and spirit of the community, serving as a testament to how sports can unite people for a worthy cause.
As the event approaches, a sense of optimism prevails around the initiative, with expectations of greater community involvement and a united goal to support vulnerable children. Buksh’s boxing promotions represent a significant step toward cultivating a culture of charity within sports, fostering broader engagement from the local population in uplifting those in need. This initiative is poised to elevate the standing of boxing in Fiji while simultaneously fortifying the community’s strength and resilience in the face of challenges.
