FNPF-owned IHG Fiji Hotels raise FJ$12,000 for Daulomani Safe Home
Tuesday, 21st April 2026 (Natadola, Fiji): FNPF-owned IHG Fiji Hotels has raised FJ$12,000 for Daulomani Safe Home in Lautoka through March fundraising initiatives delivered across InterContinental Fiji Golf Resort and Spa, Grand Pacific Hotel Suva, and Holiday Inn Suva.
The funds were generated through various initiatives, which converted everyday guest experiences into direct community support. Across the month, 100 percent of Friday coffee sales were donated, supported by selected desserts, spa treatments and cocktails where a percentage of sales contributed to the final total.
Daulomani Safe Home is a locally led, inclusive charitable shelter supporting vulnerable people in and around Lautoka, Fiji. Founded in 2018, the organisation provides temporary accommodation, safety and day-to-day care for women and children, single mothers, the elderly, people with disabilities, those experiencing homelessness, and members of the LGBT+ community.
Community shelters rely heavily on practical donations to meet daily needs, and Daulomani Safe Home has publicly described the ongoing challenge of securing basics such as safe housing, sanitation and consistent supplies. Funds raised will be used to purchase priority items directly from Daulomani Safe Home’s needs list, ensuring the contribution is targeted and immediately useful for residents.
Daulomani Safe Home currently supports around 65 residents across two sites, including 17 children. Purchases will focus on essential categories such as bedding, hygiene supplies, children’s items and household necessities that support safety, dignity and continuity of care.
Lachlan Walker, Regional General Manager, Fiji and Pacific, IHG Hotels and Resorts, said:
“Hospitality does not operate in isolation from the communities around us. ‘Cup of Kindness’ is intentionally practical. When guests enjoy a coffee, they are helping meet immediate needs beyond our hotel gates. It also reflects ‘IHG’s Journey to Tomorrow’ responsible business plan, our commitment to care for people and communities, and to deliver ‘True Hospitality for Good’ through actions that make a measurable difference at the local level.”
Edwina Biyau, Founder of Daulomani Safe Home, said:
“Support like this goes straight to what keeps our home running day to day. Essentials such as bedding, hygiene items and items for children make a direct difference to comfort, safety and stability for the people in our care. When those basics are covered, we can focus more of our time and resources on support, recovery and getting people back on their feet.”
The Cup of Kindness campaign aligns with IHG’s Journey to Tomorrow, the company’s 10-year responsible business plan focused on caring for people and communities and supporting more responsible travel.
