Samauga Health and Activity Center


The old committee houses. The house on the right was torn down and a new partition including two large rooms were built onto the house on the left.


Laloifi, myself, and Malaepepa traveled to Apia to the Australian High Commission to receive the check for building materials.


Village carpenters discuss the plan for the renovation.


Renovations begin by the men of the village.

The labour force pose next to the sign from Australia signifying their assistance.


The village gathers for a picture that ended up in the Samoan Observer, the national newspaper.


Myself and village counterpart So'oalo Siliga in front of the newly renovated committee house.


The day of the house opening ceremony features a representative from the Australian High commission, Mini, and the pastor and his wife.


Mafu and Malaepepa, members of my committee, work on the final report.
