Celebrating a milestone of purpose, perseverance, and leadership 🎓❤️

Heart Heroes Fiji proudly celebrates our Manager, Mrs. Erini Tokarua, on her graduation from University of the South Pacific last month.

We also extend our heartfelt gratitude to our partners, Cure Kids, for supporting this educational journey and for continuing to strengthen Heart Heroes Fiji through investment in the professional development of our team.

Mrs. Tokarua’s journey is one of deep purpose. What began over 15 years ago as a mother’s response to her son’s Rheumatic Heart Disease (RHD) diagnosis has grown into a powerful legacy of advocacy and service. From raising awareness, to walking alongside individuals living with RHD, to becoming a strong voice for lived experience; her leadership has helped shape a movement. That journey led to the establishment of Heart Heroes Fiji, an organisation committed to ending RHD in Fiji.

This achievement is more than a personal milestone; it strengthens our collective mission. It positions us to serve our communities with greater capacity, deepen our partnerships, and continue working alongside governments and stakeholders toward a resilient, RHD-free future.

Congratulations, Mrs. Tokarua. We thank God for your journey and pray His continued blessings as you lead with strength, compassion, and vision. ❤️🙏

Heart Heroes Fiji has come a long way. 🌿❤️
Since formally establishing in November 2023, our journey has been rooted in advocacy, awareness, support groups, motivational counselling, defaulter tracing, and community outreach for people living with Rheumatic Heart Disease (RHD) across Fiji. What began as a local mission has now grown into something far greater than we ever imagined.
In partnership with Pacific RHD, that mission has now crossed our shores.
2 days. 1 mission. A lifetime of purpose.
For the very first time, we stood alongside our Pacific family in the Solomon Islands 🇸🇧 to support their national RHD programme—working hand in hand to deliver a support group for people living with RHD. What we experienced there was powerful beyond words.
We workshopped. We shared. We listened. We learned.
All grounded in one truth: Nothing About Us Without Us.
Walking into these spaces requires courage, vulnerability, and trust. And through it all, God has been faithful. 🙏✨

The highlight? Our first-ever RHD Support Group in the Solomon Islands. A room filled with individuals eager to understand RHD, to find healing, and to rise as advocates for their communities. It was more than a meeting—it was the beginning of something transformative.

From humble beginnings in Fiji to helping shape lived experience across the Pacific, this journey has been nothing short of humbling.

To our Solomon Islands Lived Experience Champions—you are seen, you are heard, and you matter. ❤️

Vinaka Vakalevu to Pacific RHD and RHD Solomon Islands for trusting us with this sacred work.

The Pacific is rising. 🌊✨

Living with RHD as a woman is not easy. The daily challenges, the fears around pregnancy, the weight of keeping a family together while managing a heart condition, it is a journey that deserves to be acknowledged and supported.
And for our teenage girls, navigating RHD while growing up, finding their identity and facing the future, they deserve a space where they are heard too. Day 1 of being equipped with knowledge and empowered with understanding across RHD awareness, pregnancy & family planning. Because a woman who knows her condition, understands her body and feels supported, is a woman who cannot be stopped.

No one talks about what it means to be a woman or girl living with RHD. The hospital visits. The fear. The responsibility of still being everything to everyone , even on your hardest days.

Today we change that. Today we gather, we share, we heal together. Because these women don’t just survive RHD. They carry their families, their villages, their futures with grace and grit.

Daviqele, Nabukeilevu - Kadavu 🤍
What a meaningful day! Thank you to the Ministry of Health & Medical Services -Eastern Division, Wellness Fiji Fiji RHD and Kadavu sub divison for inviting us to be part of the Kadavu outreach and for recognising that there’s a gap in knowledge and support around RHD.
This holistic approach , addressing not just the medical side but also awareness and emotional wellbeing - is how we create real change đź’™
We held ARF/RHD awareness sessions and provided counseling to those newly diagnosed. Awareness educates communities on prevention and early signs, while Counseling- supports those newly diagnosed as they process the news, understand their treatment, and learn to live well with RHD.
Addressing the knowledge gap and providing support together creates lasting impact.
Heartfelt, thanks to the team who provided screening for our children.

This is what comprehensive community care looks like 🙏🏾❤️
