The Human Values 4 Kids Foundation (HV4K) is a proud U.S.-based partner of Gift of Life Fiji / Sri Sathya Sai Sanjeevani Children's Hospital Fiji.  As such, we are committing 33% of all profits from the sale of our values-based media and products to support free heart surgeries and associated hospital operational costs for children born with congenital heart disease in the Fiji Islands and surrounding South Pacific islands.  

Further, we are also serving as a platform for U.S.-based donors to participate financially in this noble program by giving tax-deductible donations to support these free heart surgeries and associated hospital operational costs with no HV4K administration fees being charged.  This means that your donation will be maximized to save the lives of children in the Fiji Islands and surrounding South Pacific islands.

The Need

Approximately 200 children are born in Fiji and approximately 2,500 children are born in the Pacific every year with congenital heart disease.  There are no super-specialty hospitals in Fiji or the surrounding South Pacific islands where pediatric cardiac surgeries can be performed.  Further, most families cannot afford to send their children to countries like Australia or New Zealand, where they can get these surgeries.  Therefore, most of these children are left to die.

What is Gift of Life Fiji / Sri Sathya Sai Sanjeevani Children's Hospital Fiji?

Gift of Life Fiji is a project sponsored by the Sai Prema Foundation of Fiji, which is a non-government organization (NGO) and registered charitable organization in the Fiji Islands.  The purpose of this project is to provide free, life-saving heart surgeries for underprivileged children in the Fiji Islands and surrounding South Pacific islands.  There are currently no pediatric cardiac services available in the region and overseas treatment is not affordable for most families at a cost of approximately $100,000 Fiji dollars (FJD) or approximately $45,000 USD per surgery. 

As of August 30, 2025, here's what has been accomplished for children in Fiji as well as the Solomon Islands, Vanuatu, Papua New Guinea, Tuvalu, Kiribati, Christmas Island, Tonga, and Samoa.

The 'heart' of the Gift of Life project is the Sri Sathya Sai Sanjeevani Children's Hospital of Fiji, which is the South Pacific's first super specialty, state-of-the-art children's hospital, offering all surgeries and treatment completely free of cost.  The $25 million FJD hospital was inaugurated on April 27, 2022, and stands as the largest project ever undertaken by an NGO in Fiji's history!

Who Performs Surgeries at the Hospital?

There are no trained pediatric cardiac surgeons in the Fiji Islands or surrounding South Pacific islands, so surgeries are undertaken at no cost to the patient as part of 'medical missions' by world-class surgeons and specialist medical teams from Australia, Czech Republic, Greece, India, Malaysia, New Zealand, Oman, Papua New Guinea, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, Turkey, Turkey, Ukraine, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, and the USA.  The teams are made up of surgeons, doctors, anesthesiologists, nurses, and other medical professionals and range between 20-40 people per mission.

The Sai Prema Foundation is also committed to providing free training abroad to Fijians in order to build local capacity with a vision of one day transforming the hospital into one which is run with local Fijian surgeons, doctors, and medical personnel.

CATHETERIZATION LAB PROJECT

The Sri Sathya Sai Sanjeevani Children’s Hospital Fiji has already given the Gift of Life to hundreds of children through free heart surgeries. Now, we are working as part of the One World One Family mission to establish a state-of-the-art Pediatric Catheterization Lab — a game-changer for young hearts in Fiji & the South Pacific.

Why a Cath Lab Matters:

- Minimally invasive heart procedures (no full open-heart surgery)

- Faster recovery times so children can return home sooner

- Less pain and minimized scarring

- Lower risk of infection and complications

- Ability to treat a wider range of heart conditions

- More children's lives saved
