The Solomon Islands Youths for Change Christian association has asked the Minister of Women, Youth, Children, and Family Affairs to support them with funds.
The Chairperson of the SIYCCA Nathaniel Tetuha appealed to Minister Freda Tuki in an exclusive interview with Island Sun on Monday this week.
Mr Tetuha said that while the Minister is so supportive of the physical development, it is also important to provide support to the spiritual development.
“I acknowledged her support for another physical program such as sports, or other major youth developments. However, I think it is also important to look and consider supporting the spiritual side of young people,’’ said Tetuha.
He said that the SIYCCA has funds but would not cater for the SIYCCA and seek additional support from the Minister.
“We focus on the spiritual side. We have funds but it isn’t enough to reach out to the provinces or constituency. My call is for the Minister to recognize us and support us with funds to roll out our work,’’ he said.
