Making it Happen

The Making it Happen campaign for 2023-2024 is supporting the work of The Salvation Army in the Solomon Islands.  

The Salvation Army’s mission in the Solomon Islands first began 11 years ago. During this time, The Salvation Army in the Solomon Islands has grown to include 11 village churches. Excitingly, there are four couples preparing to become Salvation Army officers. Appointing local corps officers, indigenous to the Solomon Islands, would take The Salvation Army’s mission there to the next level. However, the new corps officers will need houses to live in – and we can help!  

The first couple to head off for training in Papua New Guinea will be Wency and Fostina Ramo’oroa. Young and full of joy, Wency and Fostina love Jesus and long to serve him.   

This year’s Making it Happen Project aims to raise $120,000 to build and furnish a home for corps officers in one of these villages. The house would also be a missional hub for Salvos and a space for the wider community. 

How you can support Making it Happen

There are lots of ways you can support the Making it Happen project:

  • Your corps can organise a fundraiser eg: trivia night or after church BBQ. For more fundraising ideas and our full range of Making it Happen resources, visit the mySalvos Toolkit    
  • Resources are also available for a special Making it Happen Sunday. You can hold this on any date that suits you before the end of 2024.     

If you are a corps officer looking to donate Making It Happen funds raised through events, click here for general journal details.  

  • If you would like corps members to donate directly to the project, please direct them to our individual donations website

History of Making it Happen

For more than a decade, women's ministries groups across Australia faithfully fundraised for people in developing nations. Many lives and communities were changed in various locations as new projects were launched every couple of years. Since 2020, the Making It Happen project has invited all Salvationists to get involved. We are calling on all Australian Salvos to help raise funds to support the mission of God and work of The Salvation Army in the Solomon Islands.
