It’s been quite a year for the South Pacific WWII Museum. With Vanuatu’s borders closed, one of our major sources of income has all but dried up – for the moment. Additionally, Cyclone Harold that struck the northern islands (including Espiritu Santo) in April, did untold damage to Luganville and Santo as a whole, setting the economy back who knows how far.
Yet, thanks to the hard work of Museum Board members and Lengkon and Marina down at the Museum, we’ve managed to keep things pretty much as they were earlier this year:
• We’ve maintained daily posts on social media.
• The website has remained up to date.
• We’ve published the monthly newsletter.
• We’ve continued locating the families of lost dog tags from those who served on Santo during WWII.
• And most importantly, we’ve kept the Museum open – on reduced hours – and continued hosting visitors from Santo and neighbouring islands. That has also meant that our schools’ program has continued to enjoy popularity.
However, to help keep our heads above water, we’re asking for your help, to support us in any way you can. If you’d like to give, you can access our online donation page here or click on the image and make your donation via PayPal or Credit Card.
Your gift would be mean a lot to us, and we greatly appreciate your generosity and support.
If you’re from the U.S. donations to the South Pacific WWII Museum are tax deductible.
