This package will also assist in restoring health and education services damaged by Tropical Cyclone Ana.

This will support the Fiji Red Cross and other community service organisations to improve food security, health and hygiene in affected communities.

Australian High Commissioner to Fiji, John Feakes says Australia is pleased to be able to support its Fijian Vuvale with the TC Ana response.
