leading organisations and one of the world’s most recognisable brands is outstanding for the Drua.
“McDonald’s Fiji has been a great supporter of sports in Fiji alongside their extensive community engagement.”
“We are also proud to announce that together, the Fijian Drua will be an active partner to Ronald McDonald House Charities Fiji. This charity positively contributes towards children and families who need hospital care and support.”
“We will proudly lend our voice and support to this wonderful initiative.”
Evans added: “We are grateful for McDonald’s Fiji’s decision to join our vuvale and
become a big partner of our Drua women. Their support will ensure the continued

viable career path.
McDonald’s Fiji Managing Director Marc McElrath said: “This is a fantastic opportunity for McDonald’s Fiji and Ronald McDonald House Charities. We look forward to supporting and working with the Fijian Drua over the next few years and look forward to some exciting rugby.”
