THE DINA HUMANITARIAN FOUNDATION
In Loving Remembrance of
Dr. Phil A. Higginbottom

ABOUT US
Dr. Phil Higginbottom & Terry Holladay-Higginbottom are the founders of The Dina Humanitarian Foundation. Their mission is to better the lives of children and families in the remote, impoverished villages of Fiji. Dina in the Fijian language means trust and integrity, and it is this human quality that is the cornerstone of their work and the value that drives them both. They provide medicine, primary health education/care, basic household items and educational material, supplies and support for the natives. Our purpose is to encourage health, facilitate childhood education, demonstrate trustworthiness, and provide items of real benefit to remote village life, says Terry. This project will only become stronger in the honor and spirit of this great man.
