Tonga Red Cross received a donation of $10,000 pa’anga from the Bank South Pacific to assist in its recovery programs, after the natural disasters of 15 January. BSP Tonga-Country Head Marcellina Wolfgramm Ha'apai presented the cheque to Tonga Red Cross Secretary-General, Sione Taumoefolau on 11 July to mark the bank's 7th anniversary in Tonga.
 
Other donations included clothes and bins of crackers. 

Sione extended his gratitude to the bank for the cash donation that will assist the Tonga Red Cross in executing their recovery programs to affected communities, after the natural disasters.

“This is not the first time BSP has supported Tonga Red Cross activities. They helped us in the aftermath of Tropical Cyclone Gita in 2018,” he said.

Tonga Red Cross is expected to distribute the clothes and other donations to some of the outer islands later this week.
