As National Volunteer Week comes to an end, we want to extend a heartfelt thank you to every one of our amazing volunteers who give their time, energy, and compassion to support communities across Papua New Guinea 🇵🇬

From packing books, stationery, maternity packs and containers — every contribution of your time makes a real difference. Your generosity and commitment help create opportunities, strengthen communities, and bring hope to those who need it.

To our volunteers in PNG & Australia thank you for being a part of our impact.

Together, we are creating positive change.

Project Yumi is excited to confirm that we are the official charity partner for the PNG Industrial & Mining Resources Exhibition & Conference 2026.

This exciting partnership brings together industry, community, and purpose — creating opportunities to support meaningful projects that empower people and strengthen communities across Papua New Guinea.

We’re looking forward to connecting with delegates, partners, and supporters throughout the event and sharing more about the impact we can create together.

At Project Yumi, we believe access to basic healthcare should never be out of reach, especially something as life-changing as clear vision.

We were proud to support PNG Eye Care, a local not-for-profit doing incredible work at Port Moresby General Hospital’s eye clinic, by donating an ophthalmology Trial Lens Set and a Precision Vision ETDRS Illuminator Cabinet.

This vital piece of equipment will allow PNG Eye Care to accurately measure prescriptions and diagnose common vision problems.

What makes this donation even more impactful is how practical it is, no power needed, easy to transport, and built to last. It can be taken beyond the clinic and used in rural communities where services are limited or non-existent. We are grateful to play a small part in supporting the work PNG Eye Care is doing every day to bring services closer to people who need them.

Big shoutout to Dion Malangen for helping to make an impact in his community! 🇵🇬📚

We’re excited to share that boxes of reading books have been donated through Dion, who is also a registered Project Yumi volunteer based in Port Moresby. 🙌

Dion is currently working towards creating a community library for the people of 5 Mile, helping provide children and families with greater access to education and learning resources.

A special thank you to our delivery partners Sir Brian Bell Foundation and Oilmin Field Services for their generous support which is helping create learning and growth opportunities within the communities.

Every book donated is a step towards empowering young minds and strengthening communities through education. Thank you to everyone involved for supporting this meaningful project!

It's already day 12 of the Step Up 4 PNG Challenge 💪

Our recent donation of netball uniforms went to the Itisora Netball Association in the village of Lese Oalai, Gulf Province.🏐

What might seem like a simple set of uniforms means so much more, it’s pride, confidence, belonging, and the feeling of being seen. It’s stepping onto the court as a team, united and empowered.

Moments like this remind us why we do what we do. Sport has a powerful way of bringing people together, lifting spirits, and creating opportunity, and every girl deserves to feel that.

Thank you to all the sporting teams who continue to donate their pre-loved equipment. Your support is helping us reach communities and create moments like this.

A huge shout out also to our Delivery Partners: Sir Brian Bell Foundation and Oilmin Field Services. Thank you!
