According to the WCCC Director, 'Ofakilevuka Guttenbeil-Likiliki, "the grant is for the operations of the Safe House, rations for the victims temporarily residing there and its rent. There is also a portion to assist with the Head Office rent located in Fanga.
The grant is welcomed and I can only hope that it is also a sign that the political will and prioritization of eliminating violence against women and girls is on the increase."
