Speaking to the media yesterday, he said: “Even though it’s Jimmy Drekore receiving the award, I will be proud to represent this beautiful country.”
Drekore founded the Simbu Children Foundation in 2005, which strives to provide hope for sick and disadvantaged children.
It is a charity that funds airfares, public transport and medical costs for sick village children from Chimbu Province to travel to the city and overseas hospitals for medical tests, treatment or operations that are unavailable locally.
