The Samoa Victim Support Group will soon add a “House of Blessings” to its shelters at Tunaimato to cater for victims of sex and abusive crimes.
The House, according to President Siliniu Lina Chang, will cater for many babies that come through the Group.
Asked who is funding the new building, Siliniu said the donor wants to remain anonymous.
“She came to Samoa to visit the babies and she saw how we were struggling to cope,” Siliniu said.
“She asked me what I wanted to do and I replied that I wanted a better place for the babies. She agreed and that’s where it all started.”
Siliniu said the House of Blessings is an answer to their prayers.
The building will add to the House of Hope at the Group’s Tuana’imato base.
“S.V.S.G is forever grateful to all the donors from here and afar,” said Siliniu.
She said the House of Blessings will cater for children up to three years old.
It will have an isolation unit and a clinic for babies.
“During our humble journey, a baby shelter was never on our agenda but we are grateful to this kind donor for her help.”
The house is expected to be opened before the end of July.
