The Rotary Club of Suva Central organized “Gosh Fulia 2025” on November 2, a vibrant daytime community fundraiser aimed at supporting St. Giles Hospital. This event brought together families, friends, and supporters for an afternoon of enjoyment, entertainment, and a shared purpose, all dedicated to enhancing the healthcare services offered by the facility.
Ashika Devi, the President of the Rotary Club of Suva Central, highlighted that all funds raised from the event would be directed towards the club’s community service initiatives. These projects prioritize hope and improvement in mental health awareness and care for those in need. “Gosh Fulia 2025 was more than just a celebration,” Ms. Devi stated, emphasizing the event’s deeper significance as a demonstration of Rotary’s commitment to service.
The Rotary Club expressed deep appreciation for the generosity shown by guests, volunteers, and sponsors, which played a crucial role in the event’s success. This collaboration underscores the importance of community involvement in driving meaningful change. The fundraiser is part of the continued dedication from Rotary clubs in Suva to advance healthcare services and support mental well-being.
In recent months, similar initiatives have emerged from other Rotary clubs in the region. For example, the Rotary Club of Suva Peninsula Sunset hosted a charity golf day aimed at funding the renovation of the Cardiac Unit Cath Lab at CWM Hospital. Additionally, the newly chartered Rotary Club of Suva Central had previously donated essential kitchen items to St. Giles Hospital to aid its daily operations.
The collaborative endeavors and partnerships among Rotary clubs highlight a robust spirit of community engagement while showcasing their unwavering commitment to improving healthcare delivery. As these organizations join forces, they provide hope and tangible benefits for healthcare and community development efforts across Fiji. The continued positive impact reinforces the vital role of charity and proactive action in fostering a healthier future for all citizens.
