Fijian's Scholarship Appeal

p. 20 · Read in the full issue

TWELVE thousand pounds is the goal aimed for by the organisers of the Sukunaivalu Scholarship appeal. Over two thousand pounds had already been received by May 17.

This fund was started by the Fijian people to provide scholarships at Queen Victoria School for people of their race, in memory of Fijians who had given their lives in this war, in general, and particu larly in memory of Corporal Sefanaia Sukuanivalu, VC.

Contributions to date have come from in or near Suva. It is expected that the fund will swell considerably when con tributions arrive from country districts.

The effort is primarily a Fijian one, but contributions will be welcomed from any other interested persons. Donations should be sent to the Fijian Office, or direct to Ratu Sukuna.
