Financials

Since 2004, the Toomas have funded the purchase, development of the Mission property and buildings. Since 2008 many in kind donations have been received as well as income from volunteers who visit or donate to general operations. However, to continue to grow to self-sustainability the Mission needs your help. We cannot continue to bring hope and care to the people of Fiji without your financial support.

We work hard to minimize administrative costs and other overhead through the help of volunteers to assure as much of your support as possible goes directly to the Fijian people.

Please consider making a tax-deductible gift to The Mission at Natuvu Creek. We would be happy to answer any questions about how we steward the resources entrusted to us. Thank you for helping the people of Fiji through a donation or by coming to serve at the Mission.

The Mission is a private, nonprofit, nongovernmental California registered organization under the section 501(c)(3) of the United States Internal Revenue Code.
