Fiji Med-Aid is a non-profit organization based in Fremont, California. It started when I (Rosei Baltz) was informed by a friend on Facebook that Wainibokasi Community Hospital, located in the Rewa delta, had a shortage of medical supplies. I organized some people from that province already living in California to gather medical supplies, and we shipped them to Fiji. We used our own resources to cover the costs.  Later, we applied for recognition as a charity, and now have 501(c)(3) status.

Our mission is to provide humanitarian aid, support health care in rural community areas , and improve overall health of disadvantaged populations in the Fiji Islands.

We depend on monetary donations to acquire and ship items, and eventually to conduct medical missions, and we also collect donated medical equipment that can be useful in Fiji.

Rosei was born in Wainibokasi Community Hospital and grew up in that area before migrating to the U.S years ago.  She understands the need to improve community health in Fiji. There is a particular need in rural areas because of the lack of resources available to them. As a nurse she knows how difficult it is to provide better care without proper medical equipment and supplies. She decided to start Fiji Med-Aid to help out the community hospitals and make a difference to the population they serve.
