Association leader Taufa Korocawiri said they needed a hall for members to use and earn extra income.
Ms Korocawiri said tropical cyclones had destroyed their village hall which had not been renovated.
She said they wanted a separate hall that would be under the association’s name.
The hall would be used by the women to weave mats, have meetings and workshops that Government ministries or Non-Government Organisations would conduct.
“The assistance will help us a lot. We have about $2000 and would like to increase that.”
Ms Korocawiri also thanked Government for helping them in the past.
