Protecting our Families: The Fa'amalu Fanau Kit

Fa'amalu Fanau is a Pacific emergency preparedness program created to help families prepare, protect, and respond in times of crisis. "Fa'amalu" means shelter or umbrella, and "Fanau" means children. In Pasifika culture, the umbrella represents care and protection - just as a fale roof shelters the aiga (family), this resource is designed to safeguard our loved ones, especially our children. 

This guide focuses on building an emergency preparedness kit for your household. Having the right supplies ready can make all the difference when unexpected events happen. The resource outlines what to pack, how to keep items safe and accessible, and tips for tailoring your kit to the needs of your family.
