SHANGRI-LA’S FIJIAN RESORT & SPA, YANUCA ISLAND, HANDS OVER 10,0000-LITRE WATER TANK FOR (MAD) PROJECT AT KULUKULU PRIMARY SCHOOL

Coral Coast, Fiji, 26 July 2018 – Shangri-La’s Fijian Resort & Spa has handed over a 10,000-litre water tank to Kukukulu Primary School.

The project is part of an initiative by Shangri-La’s Fijian Resort & Spa to implement six MAD projects in the province of Nadroga in 2018 under Shangri-La’s Embrace Care for People project. In making the announcement the resort General Manager, Mr Francis Lee, said that what was even more inspiring was that the projects that are being implemented were put together by colleagues from various departments. The Kulukulu Primary School MAD project was submitted by the Rooms Division which comprises of the Front Office, Housekeeping, Laundry and Public Area teams.

Kulukulu Primary School has a student roll of 285 students and ten teachers and currently have only one 10,000-litre water tank at the school. The additional tank provided by the resort will provide a much needed boost as the school experiences frequent water cuts.

“We have a very active staff volunteer programme that allows our colleagues to contribute their time and skills to community development,” Mr Lee said. “In 2017 our colleagues carried out a total of over 3,000 volunteer hours in various projects representing close to 130 days of time spent in volunteerism and that is an achievement worthy of mention.  “This year we decided to challenge our team even further and asked them to submit proposals for projects that they thought would help the communities they lived in a meaningful way,” Mr Lee said.
