Testimonials

"I have been blessed to have served in the committee of FCAV since its establishment in 2014 for a period of 10 years. FCAV was formed with an aim that it will become the virtual centre for providing community support services to all Fijians living in Melbourne and across Victoria through Youth Development, Sports, Culture and Holistic Living. We have come a long way and with the support of members and the community at large, we have achieved many great things with God leading us as he has promised in Joshua 1:9, we have to be Strong and Courageous for he will be with us wherever we go. I urge every Fijian residing in Melbourne and across Victoria, be a part of this journey because it is a rewarding experience to serve the community."
