Christmas is going to be bright after all for Raijeli Vasau, the 41-year-old kitchen hand, who lost her job as a result of a fire that destroyed her work place in Valelevu last week.
The single mother of three has been visited by three families already and some more have expressed their interest in helping with the children’s education.
“I am relieved. All I have to say is that God sent his blessings in the form of these people who have come to the aid of my children and me,” she said.
