Staff Contributes to Where It All Began

Digicel PNG Foundation officially launched a 3L Staff Grants project at Bomana Primary School, led by a staff, Paulyne Nohoro, who returned to the very school where her educational journey began to donate sporting equipment for students. Through a successful application under the Foundation's 3L Staff Grants Program, Paulyne received K5,000 to support the initiative and create more opportunities for students to participate in sports and personal development.

The donation of basketballs, soccer balls, netballs, rugby balls, and hula hoops will encourage students to stay active and engaged in sport while building valuable life skills such as teamwork, discipline, leadership, resilience, and confidence, both on and off the field.

Valda Kereu, CEO of Digicel PNG Foundation, said, “The 3L Staff Grants Program is about empowering our staff to create meaningful change in the communities and institutions that have shaped their lives. Paulyne's project is a wonderful example of giving back and investing in the next generation through opportunities that encourage learning, teamwork, and personal growth."

Speaking at the launch, Paulyne Nohoro shared, “Bomana Primary School played an important role in my education journey, and it is a privilege to give back to the school that helped shape who I am today. I hope these sporting resources encourage students to participate, dream big, and make the most of every opportunity."

The 3L Staff Grants Program continues to support Digicel staff in turning their passion for community development into action, creating lasting impact where it matters most.

Strengthening Access to Education Through Digital Learning

Digicel PNG Foundation has strengthened its partnership with Flexible Open and Distance Education (FODE) through the donation of digital education resources to support its transition towards modern, technology-enabled learning. The support includes educational content developed under the BeLit TV Program, two 55-inch television screens, and Digicel satellite television equipment to help improve access to quality learning resources across FODE learning centres.

The partnership between Digicel PNG Foundation and FODE began in 2020 through the development of the BeLit TV Program, with FODE contributing curriculum expertise to ensure students across Papua New Guinea had access to quality educational content.

"Education has the power to transform lives and with FODE, we share a vision of ensuring that no learner is left behind, regardless of where they live or the circumstances they face," said Valda Kilangis-Kereu, CEO of Digicel PNG Foundation. "Through this donation, we are building on a successful partnership and investing in technology and educational resources that will enable more students to access quality, curriculum-aligned learning opportunities."

Since launching the BeLit TV Program, Digicel PNG Foundation has invested more than K300,000 in educational content, delivering over 180 hours of free-to-air learning programs and producing more than 64 locally developed Numbers World episodes to support learners across Papua New Guinea.

Progress Update: Duban Village Water Supply Project, West Sepik

Exciting progress is under way on the Duban Village Water Supply Project, an initiative led by the Strickland Amba Duban Association (SADA) to bring reliable access to clean water to the remote community of Duban Village in West Sepik Province.

The project team has begun purchasing and collecting materials from suppliers in Mt Hagen, ready for transport to Duban Village. Once on site, 2.1 kilometres of poly pipe will be laid to connect the gravity-fed water system from the source to households and key community facilities, including the church, school, aid post and playing field.

Back in Duban, the community is playing its part. Local youths have been clearing bush tracks and collecting sand and stones to build the water catchment, showing strong community ownership of the project.

Duban’s remote location and limited air access have created real logistical challenges, but the team has adapted its plans to keep work moving. All pipeline materials are now being coiled to fit aircraft cabin requirements ahead of the flight into the village.

🏉 Empowering Youth Through Sport in Rural PNG 🏉

Through the Digicel PNG Foundation 3L Staff Grants 2026, the youth of Kabuye Village in the South Gimi League, Okapa District, Eastern Highlands Province, are now better equipped to pursue their passion for rugby. A total of 13 deluxe NRL jerseys and matching socks for six rugby teams were donated, giving young players access to quality sporting gear and renewed motivation to participate in organized competition.

This community-driven project was led by Kavare Tuvi, a Digicel staff member based in Mt Hagen, who successfully applied for a K5,000 3L Staff Grant to support youth development through sport.

During the official handover ceremony, community members, league officials, and youth gathered to celebrate this important milestone. The support was warmly received, with community leaders noting that resources of this quality rarely reach such remote areas and will help keep young people positively engaged through sport.

Mr. Justin Kania, Vice President of the South Gimi League, thanked Digicel PNG Foundation for investing in grassroots sports, saying the donation would help raise the standard of competition while creating pathways for local talent development across the district.
Digicel PNG Foundation continues to empower our staff to champion causes they are passionate about and create meaningful change in their communities.

Four Staff Members Donate Desks to Gavuone Seventh Day Adventist Primary School

Despite the demands of operating and maintaining 24/7 broadcast services, four dedicated staff members made time to give back to a community in need, demonstrating a strong commitment that meaningful impact can be achieved when people come together with a shared purpose.

Through the Digicel PNG Foundation 3L Staff Grants Program, Charles Nanao, Saya Imaga, Ravana Kalei and Henry Hataya successfully secured K10,000 in funding to support students at Gavuone SDA Primary School in Aroma, Central Province.

Despite the demands of their work, they remained committed to community engagement, dedicating their time and effort to an initiative that will have a lasting positive impact on the lives of young learners.

"Having a proper desk and a comfortable place to learn can make a big difference in a student’s concentration, confidence, and overall educational experience. We are grateful to the Digicel PNG Foundation for supporting this important initiative and for investing in the education and future of our children," said Team Leader, Charles Nanao.

Digicel PNG Foundation continues to support passionate employees who go beyond their everyday responsibilities to make a lasting difference in their communities. Congratulations to Charles, Saya, Ravana and Henry for delivering a project that will positively impact students for years to come.

Giving Back to the Communities That Shape Us

Today, Digicel PNG Foundation was proud to officially hand over 10 outdoor lunch benches to Tengei Christian Academy through our 3L Staff Grants Program, supporting a more comfortable and engaging learning environment for students.

This project was led by a Digicel staff member, Edwick Kakolo, a former student of Tengei Christian Academy, who identified a simple but important need for students to have a dedicated space to enjoy their meals, connect with friends, and participate in outdoor learning activities.

“Tengei Christian Academy helped shape who I am today. Through the Digicel PNG Foundation Staff Grants Program, I wanted to give back in a meaningful way and provide students with a space where they can gather, learn, and enjoy their time at school. It’s rewarding to know that something as simple as these benches can make a positive difference in their daily school experience,” said Edwick.
Through the Foundation’s 3L Staff Grants Program, Edwick was awarded K5,000 to bring this idea to life, transforming a personal connection into a meaningful contribution for the next generation of learners.

Speaking at the handover, Valda-Kilangis Kereu, CEO of Digicel PNG Foundation, highlighted the importance of empowering employees to identify community needs and create lasting impact through practical solutions. She congratulated Edwick for taking the initiative and reaffirmed the Foundation’s commitment to supporting projects that improve learning environments and strengthen communities.

At Digicel PNG Foundation, we believe meaningful change starts with people who care. Through our Staff Grants Program, we are proud to enable Digicel staff members to give back to the schools, communities, and places that have helped shape their lives. We look forward to seeing these benches serve students for many years to come.
