A Rangiora couple’s ongoing efforts to help Samoan communities affected by extreme weather or poverty have been given a boost by the New Zealand Army.

Pacific Island Hope Mission founders Jason and Sandy Watson began sending furniture and other essentials to island communities following a holiday to Samoa in 2017.

They had booked to travel to Apia this month to help distribute clothing, stationery, kitchen utensils and school equipment, but had to cancel due to ongoing border restrictions.

The NZ Army has been involved in the project since helping after Cyclone Gita in 2018, and soldiers from 3rd Combat Service Support Battalion at Burnham Military Camp were on hand last week to collect all the donations from various schools and churches.
