For the past 23 year’s the Rotary Club of Lautoka, FIJI, has been behind a program building homes for those in desperate need. Instigator and director of the Rotahome project, Peter Drysdale, has overseen the building of 701 homes across Fiji’s Western Division. Assisting him was Saten, who still builds homes with the program assisted by hundreds of volunteers.
On top of this, in 2005 a 99 year lease was signed for 15 acres of land just outside Lautoka. 84 homes have been built there and Koroipita, Village of Peter, houses more than 350 people. The village also has a community hall/kindy, town clerk’s office, craft room, shop, bakery, store room, youth room and medical centre. With Koroipita finished, Peter, Saten and the more than 600 volunteers who have helped on the projects are poised for more.
